Yes, ok, that makes sense. Really, the problem here was(/kinda is) our interpretations of the term posttreatment. Because the study said this: Biochemical parameters were screened immediately prior ...

Oh no! Why don't you wait until after accutane to try anything like putting an acid on your face? Even though it's diluted, I don't think it's safe. I would hate to see you cause skin damage from the ...

[saving space]   Woah, woah, don't go thinking I'm one of those pro-Accutane nazis that doesn't want to believe it does wrong; quite the opposite, hence why I'm reading up on it. I'm just curio...

Day 101 The dryness continues. For PIH, I picked up some raw ACV today. I'll be proceeding with caution, beginning with a 9:1 water:ACV concentration (which will start me with a 0.5% ACV concentrati...

When we analyzed men and women seperately, posttreatment total testosterone levels were still significant (p = 0.003), however cortisol and LH levels lost their significance in women. In men, however,...

Day 100 The day is here! Same old same old with the face, 4 or 5 active. Side effects have been rough over the past couple of days... 'tane rash has been pretty bad, and I've started to get noseblee...

Day 98 Crazy close to 100! Just a couple new small lesions since day 95. Fading process still slowly moving along.

Day 95 Lesson learned: do not wake up and go off to school without looking in the mirror after a day you didn't shower; it sort of looked like I covered my face with glue and peeled half of it off. ...

Had my first nosebleed yesterday, milestone I guess?   That's the spirit

Day 93 | 3.1 Months Been a long time since I've updated! I've been very busy and pretty sick the past week. Here's the month 3 recap: - Had about 13-15 active at the start, 3-5 by the end - Ec...

Day 85 I kinda dropped the ball yesterday and forgot to take my pills. I also dropped the ball yesterday when I failed to set an alarm and went to bed at 2... got up at 10, school starts at 8. Wulp....

Did you pick at your pimples while on tane mate?   Nope, never. The worst that happened was that some on the verge of falling off were swept away as I was patting my face dry, or something like...

Day 84 | Week 12 Nearing the end of month three now! Day 84 is much better than day 54. Still a bit of old stuff healing, a couple new actives (smaalll ones) by my eyebrows. I'm actually pretty lu...

Day 83 These actives on my cheeks are starting to go away. Weird that they took so long, since they're not very big or anything. Sleep schedule still isn't under control .

Day 81 Sun is still shining full force here... which is nice, but I'd kind of like for it to go away so I wouldn't have to be concerned about pigmentation over red marks. Other than that, more slow ...

Day 80 I've got a couple annoying actives on my cheeks, but things seem to be fading relatively well.

Day 79 Things still seem pretty stagnated, but that's how it is when you update daily! For some reason, I find it weird that tomorrow's day 80... I feel like that day has some special relevance when...

Day 78 Things seem more or less the same... dry patches haven't been so bad. That's all there is to say, really... Senior year SUCKS, 5 AP classes + college apps + studying for the SAT and SAT IIs...

Day 77 | Week 11 Two pills behind now, whoops. I'm just gonna take 3 today. That spot on the chin is looking like it will fall off soon. Still have some minor spots on the forehead/sides of face a...

There is, to me, an obviously correct answer here, you're just trying to rationalize your minor alcoholism... if you think your Accutane course is inhibiting your drinking and not the other way around...

Day 76 Ok, very suddenly I'm starting to get eczema/rashes (not sure which) everywhere except my face and torso. Upper arms, forearms, legs... they're big areas too, which sucks. I'm trying to wear ...

Day 75 | 5/12 done One new active on the chin, not sure if it's a cyst or not. That puts an end to my streak of no new actives, but it was a good run, right? Oh, and I forgot my Aquaphor today i...

Day 74 No new actives, I think. I actually have only four or five active right now. Also, if anyone's curious about what I'm doing w/ my face in general currently, it's not much. I apply the Cera...

Day 73 The number of active lesions is in the single digits right now. (To clarify, when I say active I just mean still inflamed/a considerable bump.) Haven't been able to say that since around the ...
