Spironolactone Updated
Been dealing with hormonal acne since I hit adulthood. Started spiro 100mg/day on 12/19/17. Some dry mouth. Drier skin than normal, but not noticeable after moisturizing. Few days of mild breast tenderness that resolved. No dizziness, fatigue, hair loss.

Spiro Journey Updated
I wanted to share this before/after for those struggling w hormonal acne. Spironolactone was a godsend for me. Did accutane twice and it didn’t work— tried every topical remedy you can think of. Spiro works!! Just be patient. (left) when I started it in 2011(right) today, 2018. Been off for 2.5 yrs.

help Updated
I have had acne for a few years and I do not know how to fix it. I have tried sacylic acid and benzoyl peroxide but neither of them work. Most of the time it looks okay but under bright lights, it looks really bad. Could it be pityrosporum follicullitis? Thanks
