If you google BNF - You get up the British National Formulary. You can use this to look up drugs, including topicals products. Each one has a breastfeeding section.

UK recommendations are 0.5mg/kg for first month and then up to 1mg/kg onwards. Until a maximum cumulative dose of 150mg/kg. Obviously every country issues different advice to their doctors. Maybe the...

20mg is a low dose. This is why its taking so long. Were you ever on a higher dose? Did your doctor have a reason for not putting you on a higher dose?

Hi True Justice So of course sebaceous output returns in some people - these will likely be the people for whom acne recurs. Unfortunately accutane isn’t a magic wand for acne. It has a mechanism an...

How old are you? Unless you’re over 50, you need to see a doctor about your periods. You may well have PCOS.

Moderate. Don’t call it hormonal. “Hormonal Acne” means acne caused by abnormal hormone levels. The key word being abnormal. The main examples are girls with PCOS and guys on anabolic steroids. Endoge...

Its comedonal acne. I would see your GP.

Thanks for telling me that. Its very interesting. A lot of people push down our throats the “refined sugar is the cause of acne” mantra. But a lot of these people seem to have very questionable judgem...

So you havn’t consumed pudding or sugary drinks for 4 months? Has that improved your acne or has it stayed the same?

How long have you been sugar free for?

It mostlikely will last the entire treatment. I don’t think theres a way of stopping it, so just embrace it and accept and love yourself with it.

Current biomedical opinion is that demodex is not the cause of acne. Its thought it could possibly be involved in Rosacea pathology, but even there it remains only a hypothesis. Demodex Folliculitis i...
