What olive oil isn't natural..? Such an annoying buzzword around here. As for the refining process, I'm pretty sure anything labelled "Virgin" or "Extra Virgin" means it is produced by physical means...

All the girls say that, but then expect something on Valentines day anyway I wanted to do the Bath half in March but it filled up ridiculously quickly, so not sure. I think there's a 12-miler in Che...

That's a shame you had to stop. I used to be a propa serious road cyclist, but since going to Uni I've got more into running as cycling just takes up too much time and effort (training rides were ofte...

I'm gonna whack everything on the first post.. easier that way!

Hey! Hhmm, yeah, is just the nosebleeds that are troublesome, and as my nose isn't dry/sore, I've been looking into how I would lower lipid levels. Obviously the standard thing is lose weight and eat ...

The initial breakout is mild in most cases. I found its more of a change than a worsening of acne. People who get quite a bad one just tend to make a fuss about it, then are fine a couple of weeks lat...

Thanks did the dermatologist phone up or did you check in? My GP did the blood test when he referred me, so I was able to get the prescription when I saw the Derm a couple of weeks later. I do live ...

Glad you're happy with how things are going & well done on not getting preggers! Your side effects seem to be quite strong though I'm lucky enough to still only have the dry lips. I'm finding my...

You know what i think is kind of funny? You guys who are being negative say do this and that like its so easy. You mention how you had severe acne back then and it didn't hold you back. Sure i can ...

At its root, adult acne is caused by the same things that cause teen acne: excess skin oil and bacteria. Any changes in hormones, including those brought on by pregnancy and menstruation, can trigger ...

Looks like acne to me, but probably a good idea to go & see a doctor to make sure it isn't Rosacea.

All antibiotics have pretty much the same effect so it's likely you'll experience a reduction while you're taking it, but then a return when you stop. If your acne is particularly persistent, ask your...

Sounds like you're waited on 24/7. Others manage to get through life with severe acne & other more serious afflictions. If you need some inspiration, watch the Paralympics. If you want your own ...

My blood test took less than a week to come back & as soon as it's reviewed by the Derm you should be able to get your prescription.

Just depends how severe it is now. I'm nearing a month and have noticed significant improvement, but my acne was not at it's worst at the start of the course. Your dose also isn't very high so changes...

This is hilarious. People aren't "brainwashed" into not putting urine on their faces. It may be sterile but also contains a lot of waste products & chemicals. Your body filters it out for a reason...

I don't have the whole amount, but she gave me 3 months' worth until I see her again. Tbh she was pretty much like 'well clearly you're only here to get some Isotretinoin so here you go', so probably ...

Glad things also seem good for you so far. I don't have an appointment until March- I think it's the only one throughout the whole course apart from the start! (and possibly end). Do you see yours mo...

Why do you think you have "Leaky Gut Syndrome"? And anyway, it clearly isn't the cause of your acne.  

Not too bad- everywhere except my chin seems to be clearing up pretty well at the moment & I haven't broken out in the last week or so but dealing with a few big spots that are just lingering arou...

If it's severe, then isotretinoin is the way to go.

Go to the doc's if you're not sure that it's acne. In the mean time, don't constantly wash your face as it'll only aggravate it, & try putting some Benzoyl Peroxide on the area for a couple of wee...

Its great you got rid of gluten and dairy. Does your diet include any seed oils(corn oil, sunflower oil, etc..)? Doesn't look like Acne. Looks like excessive inflammation caused by the intake of see...

You seem to think you have a Candida infection- why? Do you have any symptoms? Personally the B5 regimen didn't work at all for me & caused digestive issues, but many report good results after a ...

Your vitamin C dose could be higher. I find 1000-2000mg a day has a noticeable effect.
