So after around 1.5 years of yaz here I am, still breaking out. What I don't get is how I can get 4 lumps one month (even that, most were small or not that inflamed) and then 7 giant ones within 2 weeks of next month (and this time is usually not as bad as third and fourth weeks). I didn't do ANYTHING differently. After a bad first week I tried increasing my inositol dosage as it has been working for me. Guess what, woke up with 2 huge lumps just a few days after. That never happens, not since months ago when my skin was at its worst. I really thought since inositol helped me I could increase the dosage again with good results. I don't know anympre, I'm so lost and depressed.

I read your log on Yaz a while ago. I'm sorry to hear your still breaking out. Maybe you should add spiro to the combo or change to another pill. You've given it enough time to adapt to the hormones. I'd suggest a pill higher I'm estrogen good luck to you!

I would suggest ditching the treatments and start healing. You can also find out whats most likely causing your acne. Treatments are a gamble, but healing and curing is a journey.

i would add spiro to you regimen and that should help you out a lot. or you can stop the pill and only take spiro. also does your doc know you are taking insotol? maybe its interfering with the pill. i would mention this all to your derm and see what they suggest.

I have been using differin cream for almost 6 months now..tbh it didnt do much for my skin..i was still breaking out....the past week i have added a apple cider vinegar and lemon juice toner after cleansing my face..that seems to be settling down the acne and helping somewhat with the scars...i am also continuing witj the differin every night.
