I Know Which Acne Treatment Works...
Do You?
........CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT........


I have a few small bumps on my forehead and I want to prevent the acne from getting worse

I do not have acne and my skin is very sensitive to any acne treating face wash, but i would like something that will get rid of my occasional blackheads.
Currently using Cetaphil, and it doesn’t get rid of blackheads, but is very gentle on my skin.

looking for a little bit of clarifications as i delve into more research…
i have a hormonal issue that i believe is setting off phase II & III acne. i have no medical insurance to pay for treatment, but also refuse to use man-made nasty chemicals in & on my body any longer.

i know it is hormonal because i was on a progestrone pill for potential PCOS symptoms and irregular period for 3 years awhile back. with the help of proactive it cleared up all but the occassional acne spot. i could of been a cliche proactive before and after face model at that time.

but after i dropped the pill, proactive did not work as well at all and i was sick of it bleaching my towels, sheets, and clothing. i ended up dropping it from my regimen.

i don’t want to cover or treat with a short term fix (neutrogena, proactive, clean & clear, non-comodegenic make-up etc).

i want to take care of this the PROPER way. permanently.

I’ve read that Vitex Agnus Castor can help with PCOS and hormone imbalance as well with luteal defects…. i am currently tracking my cycle also to help me become more aware of my body & it’s signals and have noticed i have a projected ovulation 3 days from beginning of luteal, which is only 5 days in length.

here’s my current specs health-wise:
- 28 year young female, overweight, no major health concerns, no medications taken
- face has been breaking out in Phase I – III acne; i look like a high school student
- progestrone-based birth control helped with acne issue when mixed with proactive; was on pill for potential PCOS (was symptommatic, but never tested) and irregular cycles
- improvement in eating habits helps, but result is minor improvement
- i have been off said pill for well over a year. cycles have been normal. have minor PCOS symptoms, but regular cycle (~32 days) and 5 day luteal.
-treating face externally with mix of 25ml pure aloe vera gel and couple drops tea tree oil (this mixture lasts about 1 week); oil production has lessened by 2nd day, face looks freshly washed all day. prior to use, i used to end up looking oily 1/2 was through day with just soap (Dr. Bronners baby mild is used).

i have read VItex Agnus-Castus can affect the body differently depending on dosage; that is where i am looking for guidance.

any information is helpful, a big thanks in advance.
okay let me address a couple things:

1) i know about all insurance options and unfortunately i am in a position where i am between any options. i also went to school for medical billing. this was not the question, so your answer has no relation to this question whatsoever. but thank you for your input.

2) acne ace is a COVER UP. this product is not a cure although it is marketed as one. i also specialize in marketing, they’re no better than proactive, clean & clear, neutrogena, etc. have fun ingesting your man made chemicals. thank you for your input.

Help? I have this lump that is near my forehead. Here’s a pic of it, anyone know what it could be?
Ok so i have this lump or bump on my forehead, it looks pretty nasty. I decided to take a pic of it so maybe someone here can help me, by adding what they think it is?

Is it a cyst, acne/pimple or something else?

Note: i had this lump a few days ago, it went away and now its back in the same spot..pretty weird

Thanks

Here is the link, it is kinda gross, sorry
