I’ve always struggled with some acne and been on meds for it before. However in May of this year I started to notice it was really getting out of hand and like no acne I’ve had before. I’m currently on month 4 of accutane and believe me i know all the advice about it and the famous line of “it gets worse before it gets better” but I just feel like I should be seeing some improvement. ANY improvement, and in my opinion the photos from today are no better then the photos from May. I’m not looking for product advice or anything, my main question to my ladies on here that have dealt with similar issues is… was it something more? Was it something more then just a phase in your life of getting hormonal acne? I appreciate being on accutane and if it does help then great however I can’t stop asking the bigger question of why is this happening? What is the root issue? I’m WAY passed the post partum stage. Not over weight, diet hasn’t changed. No lifestyle changes, no new products. There is nothing I have changed before or since this has started, so my mind is wondering about health issues I may be unaware of. So if any one on here has a similar story and has a more in depth diagnosis aside from just hormonal acne please please please comment. My face hurts, my spirit hurts, my confidence hurts. I’m embarrassed every where I go because it’s too miserable to wear makeup and looks awful even when I do try. Like I said I will be so grateful if accutane helps to treat the physical acne but I just can’t help but wondering what is going on inside my body for this to be happening in the first place. Please tell me your stories so I can try to get to the bottom of this 🤍
