Nothing worked for me. I tried every over the counter skin mask, face washes, proactiv, washed my pillow case everyday, tried not wearing makeup for weeks.

Finally I tried antibiotics which worked somewhat, it wasn't the magic pill like accutane is, but it helped. But if you're on the bc pill don't try antibiotics, that's how I have my ds so just a warning since my dr didn't warn me.

But they'll have you try topical gels and creams with antibiotics before starting accutane

I'm going to ask my doctor about Accutane when Im done bf my toddler which will probably be soon anyway. I just cant understand why I never had acne problems and then they appear in my late 20s! I also feel tired alot but that could be from extended breastfeeding I'm guessing. Is there anything natural I can do for my face? I tried otc masks etc nothing seems to make a difference.

I had extremely bad acne all my teenage life, I'm 21 now. I got the paraguard after I had my son 2 years ago and it didn't make my acne worse. I actually went on accutane in the beginning of this year and since finishing it 4-5 months ago, I still haven't had any breakouts or bad pimples. So, I don't think it's the paraguard. Especially since there's no hormones

I have the paraguard and haven't experienced this issue. The only time I did it was related to hormones for sure and has since subsided, even though I still have the paraguard.
