It's been a while since I posted this and wanted to give an update. About a week after I posted this, I cleared up. I was taking Keflex 500mg twice a day and bumped up my spironolcatone to 75mg. I we...

Long story short, my birth control failed last week and ran to the store and took Plan B. Currently, I've been taking 50mg of Spironolactone (I've been wanting to increase my dosage but the deem said...

Ok because my skin is back to normal and have no crazy little bumps anymore, going back to my initial reporting.   I'm happy to say everything cleared up quite fast and well and I'd say I'm abou...

Things have been looking up today and yesterday. The little bumps are going away and peeling off, I'd say about 90% gone.   No new breakouts since the initial breakout last week and the cyst on ...

Thanks for your words. It is encouraging to come on here, hell I started coming on here since before I started Accutane and now I'm back because the evil is back! Sometimes I think I must have done s...

I'm 25 and have struggled with acne since I was 12. Don't get me wrong, I've gone through clearish periods and right now, my acne still isn't as bad as it was years ago when I was a teenager. Recentl...

I just put some makeup on and it makes all these tiny little bumps I gave around my mouth really noticeable, more noticeable than what I thought I had so all the bumps I thought were gone are still th...

Better day today. Just woke up. A lot of the clogged pore bumps are drying up and peeling off as well as the zits around my mouth that formed from them. Still got that cyst on my jawline hear my ear b...

We will see if it is. I stopped using it and went back to the makeup routine I use before the new stuff...ugh, I spent $100 on the new stuff and it made me look flawless! Except for when my face erupt...

Things are looking kinda better today. Most of the bumps on my neck and jawline are gone. Still have some bumps around my mouth that are drying up. There's a cyst/large pustule on my jawline near my e...

It's possible for the duac to possibly do that, but I've been on that before with no problems. I highly doubt it's ortho lo all of a sudden, I've been on that for 5 months Yes I know it's the obviou...

You seem to be doing alright. I'm kinda in the same boat, except this is my first time on spiro. I was clear for a few years after accutane and antibiotics but screwed everything up by going off and b...

So today everything is the same pretty much. My skin is so dry and tight I think it's helping dry up these little spots. A few have calmed down, most remain the same and I have my first cyst in almost...

That's interesting. Maybe it's the bacteria adjusting because they can't thrive on the oil anymore since it's no longer there? I went from an oil slick to bone dry in 2 weeks, it's so dry it feels tig...

I've been lurking around here reading as much as I can about skin purging and acne treatments, specifically Spironolactone.   I started spiro a little more than 2 weeks ago. before treatment, my...

That is pretzy exactly what happened to my skin . But it did not hurt, rather feel itchy and all the pores that were clogged started to turn into these little pimples I think the pain is from scratc...

Still bad today. It feels a lot worse than it looks. My face is dry and itchy and bumpy. The bumps for the most part are skin colored so you can see them unless you get real close but you can feel the...

UPDATE! Everything has progressed from bad to 10000x worse. I counted every pimple that has appeared on my face right now. I went from 4 actives to 30. They are no longer just little bumps but rathe...

Thanks! That's a good idea with the BHA. Parts of my face have been dry for a few days to the point where a piece near my lips is a bit bloody so I may try that next week if things are ok in that depa...

Hi everyone,   I'm here to show my progress with spironolactone.   My background: Suffered from acne since I was 13. Didn't get real bad till I started college, started getting quartered s...
