Bacne

[trixxy]

At the moment I am breastfeeding and don't want to use any oral medications or topical ointments on my skin. A lot of that stuff gets into the breastmilk and I don't want to do anything to effect my son't health. I shower every day with Neutrogena Acne Body Wash and apply aloe vera gel. When I exercise I wear a different shirt and bra. Afterwards I always either take a shower or clean my skin off. It's seems to be improving a little bit since using the aloe vera. Does anybody have any suggestions as to what might help?

Yes, eliminate or miminize all deep fried food/refined carbs and take a combo supplementation of evening primrose oil(omega 6) and Flax oil (omega 3) from organic source. It has helped my sister and her friends with acne problem tremendously. Also remember that sleep deprivation will often worsen the problem ( well, everybody should know this based on exp ).

Just for a short background, I've had acne for 10 years tried everything. The only thing that ever worked was Diane 35. However, I react badly to bc pills so I had to quit and my acne came back worse than ever afterwards. I was almost at the point of doing another treatment of accutane when I read somewhere that evening primrose oil can regulate hormones and help with acne. I thought, well since I know that my accutane is related to hormones, I should try this....knowing that I've tried a million supplements before that were supposed to "cure" acne. So three weeks ago I started taking 500mg of evening primrose oil with 15 IU's of vitamin E every day. (I also take a multivitamin and Vitamin A everyday). I figured it's probably not going to work so I start scheduling my appointments to get myself accutane.

Three weeks later and I can't believe it. shock.gif My skin is clearing. Right now I only have 2 active pimples. The rest of my face is clearing (no active acne, just scars slowly fading). I can't believe this. I've tried everything and this thing I decided to just throw in for kicks is actually working.

Where can I purchase it? Do I have to get a perscription?

[escapee]

Your local Pharmacy or online store such as Yes-supplement . No prescription is required because there are natural supplements like vitamins.

Note : Both parent Omega 3 and omega 6 from EPO and FLAX are essential nutrients for human.

~90% of my acne went away in my mid-teens after I started baring my skin to the sun more often. Before then it had been quite severe and all the meds I'd taken for it had simply made me feel sick. I know of a couple medicines that could work for me now if I needed them, but getting out in the sun is still my first choice.
