Acne & TTC Ever since being off birth control I have been breaking out like crazy. Anyone have any tips? I feel embarrassed leaving my home. Help!!!

Question

Answer

I'm having horrible acne from paragard. Hormonal acne is a bitter bitch! I feel like I've tried everything. Some things do help but it's never gone. I started using dermalogica's clay cleanser & so far it's done the best job. I also use a homemade clay mask-equal parts Aztec healing clay+apple cider vinegar+a little activated charcoal. It prickles as it dries and I'm a little red for about 20 minutes but it works great. I love the face you made.

Answer

This happened to me, and lasted about 3 months 😩😩 it all depends on how long it takes for your body to regulate its hormones. Don't worry, you will clear up soon!💕💕

Answer

It's been over a year for me. The only good thing I have to say about BC is that it controlled my acne for years😧. Now I'm a pizza face each cycle. Washing your face in the am and pm helps. Also, make sure you lightly moisturize. Don't under do it or over do it. Aveeno makes a good one with less oils

Answer

Stopped BC last month and my skin is AWFUL right now!!! You're not alone!
