Robbie you are right, this drug sucks bad. We are currently putting together an ANTI Accutane program, which is going to touch also on other potentially dangerous prescription drugs. Actually we may g...

Accutane has epigenetic effects, plain and simple. The following study is only a small fraction of those effects: [Edited link out] Quote Effects of Isotretinoin Treatment on Epige...

The best part of the entire travesty is that we have gotten nowhere really after 30 years. No acceptance of a link between Accutane and many of its side effects, sparse and incomplete scientific inve...

@Erik, The symptoms you speak of are commonly discussed side effects of Accutane. Please report your side effects to medwatch or RxISK.org, even the embarrassing ones. A doctor is legally able to us...

Xavier, thanks. My sentiments exactly. Never has there been a reliably documented case of a healthy routine of self-pleasure causing persistent sexual dysfunction years later. Some of us are fighting...

Dude, my problems started before I even had access to high-speed internet porn. Think underwear ad pages and playboys. My rate of pleasuring myself actually dropped big time before my libido died and ...

@Dimmer- Thanks for sharing this. I have always wondered if any Accutane victim had tried taking finasteride as recommended by Kevin Pezzi. Very very strange that a drug well-known to cause persistent...

Thanks for the replies to the cannabis question. I was just curious how it has been going for everyone attempting this route. A crucial PFS study was published earlier this week: C. D. Loreto, F...

Any good news from the people trying RSO or a vaporizer?

@hailey- Good to hear. You might want to PM Gladiatoro from this thread to see what helps him control his episodes of pseudotumor cerebri. Can't remember exactly how he said he does it, but he mention...

By the way, after 4 years of workup and every endocrinology test available, my official diagnosis is hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and subfertility secondary to partial hypothalamic insufficiency, due...

If anyone is still interested in ordering the 23andMe genomic test, there is a site that will now interpret the raw data file obtained from 23andMe for only $5.00. Their health report seems even be...

Thanks accux and showbarka. This would also be a good article to refer your doctor to if you are trying to convince them that this condition exists outside of your own mind. @M Bison- I think the ge...

@M Bison- Androgen receptors are expressed in nearly every cell in the body (including brain cells), meaning they likely serve a function in every cell in the body. Immunocytochemical localization ...

@MrErdem- There have been a few stories of guys benefiting from using TRT if they had low T after tane, but it doesn't usually do any good. Seems like 9/10 times it makes no difference in sexual side ...

@MrErdem- Those things in your field of vision that look like bacteria are probably just floaters. I've noticed them from time to time since I was a kid.

I have had IGF-1 tested, which is supposed to reflect levels of HGH fairly well, and it was on the higher side of the range. Accutane has been shown to significantly lower IGF-1 during treatment, but ...

@monn Yes, I was the only one there in the US. There were around a dozen people who attended the UK protest. It appears the new RAGforum has conveniently disappeared the same as old RAGforum: ...

Yes. Report, report, report your side effects. All of them. Even if you have sexual side effects and are worried about people finding out somehow. You were never warned, partially because others were ...

@HATEMOST- I stumbled upon this study on another forum recently: K. Sato, M. Iemitsu, K. Matsutani, T. Kurihara, T. Hamaoka, and S. Fujita, “Resistance training restores muscle sex steroid hormone...

@ HATEMOST- Accutane has been observed to lower the pituitary hormone responsible for signaling testosterone production (luteinizing hormone), and to significantly lower 5-alpha reduced hormones, o...

Yeah Dubya a bit over 20 years and I guess I broke your record ha... but I got the worst side effects years later you know Dubya in the not too distant future they will look back at allopathic medici...

Gladiatoro, You mean you have been dealing with side effects for 20 years since taking Accutane? Thought I was the unfortunate record-holder here. I spoke with someone recently who has been sufferi...

Of course everyone gets side effects to some extent, like dry lips and skin and joint pain, it's another thing if they even notice them. The more severe, long term side effects are rare. The fact is t...

My dermatologist said that none of these side effects are from Accutane. A dermatologist said Accutane doesn't cause serious side effects. News Flash! It's good to know they won't even humor the pos...
