You are taking 200 mg of minocycline a day when you're 120 pounds? You are going a bit too HAM. By that I mean that you should probably reconsider that immediately. I'm 160 pounds and I was taking 80 ...

Honestly, you're very pretty. It was pretty hard to stop staring at your eyes, lol. On the topic, however, I'd highly recommend just getting back on prescriptions. The over-the-counter stuff is so hit...

QUOTE well i guess spironolactone isn't an option haha. , Don't rule it out yet. I am a male on 150mg/day of spironolactone. There are lots of men on spiro. It is prescribed for men for high blood pre...

Immediately wanted to put you on Accutane? Was it because of the severity of everything or just the type of acne (hormonal). It doesn't seem like you have any cysts.

I've personally begun to use Panoxyl as a body acne wash, but it also works for the face. My skin is fairly sensitive as well and the only side-effect I've encountered is excessively dry skin directly...

It's ridiculous how much people tend to point out acne as opposed to other, glaringly obvious flaws. For example, people who gain weight rapidly never get as many comments as people who have a sudden ...

You look very pretty yourself. I honestly don't think your hyperpigmentation would bother me in the slightest. I know where you're coming from, though. Acne can really get us down, but it's not wise t...

Lol, you sure about this?

No, I would not say this is severe acne at all. However, if your acne is getting you down to the extent that you are depressed and cannot do the things you normally do with pleasure any longer, Accuta...

Though this article highlights some great points about how we can spin acne into a positive thing, the images that accompany it are not really fitting, seeing as how the woman barely even has a single...

Hey, you're not alone. I feel the same way when I look in the mirror. I don't think I could ever count the number of scars I have 'cause that'll just tear me apart. I also feel like I'm the only one ...

This is an extremely sad post, but it describes the emotions of an acne sufferer perfectly. There are moments in life that bear much greater consequences than having acne. For example, graduating coll...

I am interested in responses to this. I weight train a lot and I find myself lowering the intensity of my workouts in order to avoid sweating as much. My skin begins to look disgusting when I sweat an...

I used to be comforted by the words - "Acne is not the most important thing in life." "It will heal, it's nothing to feel depressed over." At 22 years old, I've already built up a social life and esta...

I recently started posting here because my acne had really gotten me down for very superficial reasons. I'm a college senior and I've always seen myself as a decently attractive guy (decide for yourse...

Any other thoughts on or experiences with Solodyn and Ziana as treatments? It will be one month since I started the treatments yesterday and, though I'm seeing some results, it's not exactly what I wa...

No, it's not a stupid post at all. I was recently in a similar situation regarding my acne. I'm a senior in college, have a ton of friends already, and a pretty healthy social life in general. I've al...

PinkBunny41, thanks for your response! I've been on Solodyn in the past but I never really stuck with it for long enough to actually see what it can do. I was told by a dermatologist that, initially,...

KingofAcne, I appreciate your response. You make quite a few good points regarding confidence being contained in one's perception of self and that treatment really requires positive thinking, as well ...

I have been on a Solodyn, Ziana regimen for over 2 weeks (3 this coming Wednesday). I definitely noticed new spots popping up since starting the regimen but things are becoming a bit smoother now. I'v...
