Any one else struggling with acne?

Question

I've always battled hormonal acne and was able to manage it with birth control and daily oral medication which obv I stopped taking when I was trying to conceive. Now that I'm pregnant (10 weeks) my skin is the worst it's ever been in my life! 😣 Has anyone else experienced this? Did it get any better further into the pregnancy?

Answer

Yes! I'd forgotten about it being like this with my first and I feel like a hormonal teenager again. It cleared up for me around the 2nd trimester so hopefully it goes away soon.

Answer

Yes! So bad. I look like a hormonal teenager! I’ve been trying to only use safer skincare but have resulted in using some stronger concealers to bid the bigger pimples. Beauty counter charcoal bar and charcoal mask have helped me but also very much on the hunt for other product suggestions if anyone has found something that works great.

Answer

I’m getting them bad too, I’ve always struggled with it around my period. Now it’s just constant. I get them around my mouth especially now. Very frustrating!

Answer

Yes. I got off BC because we wanted to try to have a baby. Well my skin got bad after that- finally got it back to normal- then got pregnant (which we are super happy about) but after I’ve became pregnant the acne on my face came back with vengeance. It’s horrible. Any help/ advice/ suggestions??

Answer

Cerave products did wonders for me!

Answer

I’ve been going through this for years since I had my daughter in 2012. I tried oral medication, topical medication and birth control. Now I’m 10 weeks and I have the worst back acne ever. It’s painful and horrible. I also have some sore ones along my jaw line.

Answer

Me too! I started applying plain Aloe Vera gel twice a day on my whole face - it doesn't clear up everything, but it helps alot!
