recreational drugs will add to it if you're into that. Sometimes adding daily drugs like finasteride can make it just that much more than what you're body can handle

finasteride= more testosterone = Acne..... yes! Add DIM to you regimen and kill the acne.

are you sure about that? With that logic DIM will also stop our hair loss.

to Jake, Retin-A on the face cleared all acne for me... and it gave my skin a nice glow.

Some people are saying these pimples are because of Estrogen increase? But I am on Aromasin E2D shouldn't happen with the worlds most powerful Anti-e...

This Benzac AC gel is really helping so far

Why would estrogen cause pimples? Does that make any sense to you?

Estrogen is actually used as a treatment for acne, although just in women. However, I do vaguely recall hearing many years ago about a young man who was being given birth control pills for his acne, but I'm sure that's not a normal procedure any longer.

I used to have severe acne...treated w/accutane. I seriously doubt finasteride is causing outbreaks. I'm taking dutasteride which is much stronger than finasteride and have had no outbreaks (well, nothing out of the ordinary). If any of these drugs would cause an outbreak, I'd probably be the first to get it. LOL. I'd talk to a dermatologist and tell them exactly what medications your taking. It's best not to speculate too much w/o consulting a professional.
