Pianina

  Not so great. I'm getting obsessed with my acne scars and skin texture, which is awful in winter. Today, someone took me for much older than I am. Later I looked at myself in a mirror and sa...

Thanks for the update Pianina! I'm on day 24 of Spiro and Day 3 of Yasmin. I have healing going on from an initial breakout last week during the week before my period. I skipped my period this mont...

CarpeMomentum - it's going well for me too! Though I did a mistake - ran out of Spiro when I was in Brazil and had to skip 6 days, during which my organism probably "forgot" about spiro, so now I nee...

Ran out of spiro when I was in Brazil and it took 6 days for me to get the pills again. I guess it's the same as starting them anew :/

  It's been more than 2 months since I started Spiro, and it doesn't seem to work for me so far. I will give it 1-2 months more and then there's not much left to do but to take Accutane. I have...

Hey! I have quite deep and obvious scars on my right cheek. Some are smaller, but 4 of them are quite huge and I doubt they would respond to any type of topical treatment. I wonder if these could be t...

85% of my face is totally clear. One cheek is still breaking out and I don't get why... Seems like that area is deeply infected. I increased my spiro intake to 100 %, but so far it's not working. It's...

I don't understand. Most women get much fuller hair while on anti-androgen. Mine is falling out at alarming rate... I started avoiding combing my hair or taking a shower and even counting how many hai...

Is it available in Canada? Pianina, no IB? I can hardly remember, as it was so long time ago...

Thanks Heitea Everyone sees their flaws as if they're looking through a magnifying glass. I don't like the scars and in a certain light it looks kinda creepy, but I still can't decide if I want to ge...

I find insecurity unattractive, but not acne

Lactic acid could be good for you, if you have mild acne. Besides, it exfoliates and moisturizes

The reason I never gave the regimen a serious try is the way BP burns my skin - and the burning sensation doesn't go away when it dries, btw. Maybe you have a thin and fair skin like me, then it's r...

I'm kinda anemic too, and the supplement made me break out, unfortunately. I'm trying to have a better diet, eat iron rich foods like liver, beef, sardines (i hate fish though), beans etc. But the le...

You're making everything much more complicated in your head, than it really is in the reality. Why giving yourself a negative identity - the ghost, the guy who's haunted by old breakouts...? And why t...

It's day 27 and I'm feeling that my acne prone area on my right cheek hurts a little bit. I was quite sure that a new cyst is coming, but it seems like an old mark left from a cyst I had way back in w...

Looks like I spoke to soon! I now have 1 cyst near my chin where I always seem to get them and about 3 very small pimples on the right side of my nose! I've been clear 4 freaken months so why now!!! A...

Sure Heitea, jump in! I'm happy you got Spiro prescribed. How are you planning to take the doses? 25 mg in the morning and 25mg in the night? Differin contains retinoid, right?

My doctor haven't even mentioned any blood tests or that this drug doesn't let the organism to get rid of potassium effectively. :/ But I'm planning to do the blood test when i'm on month 6.

I have the misfortune of living in Greece.     I thought that you look whether Italian or Greek!! Beautiful country, though I understand it has a lot of problems...

So it's day 25 since I'm on Spiro I've increased my Spiro dose to 75 mg, we'll see if I get any pimples next time I have my period.   I'm dealing with pretty bad hair loss, don't really know w...

I'll definitely be following your log! Hopefully I will be prescribed Spiro on Thursday and we can track our progress together! Since I'm on Beyaz (which is suuuuuper similar to Yasmin, just .01 diff...
