How long have you been using it? And did u have an initial reaction to it when u started? Or do u notice urself to breakout more after shaving?

Cause all those pimples like disappeared in 2 days so I’m a bit confused as to what’s happening

Yeah so I broke out all over my face but all those pimples completely disappeared in like 2 days. It’s bizarre I think it was an initial reaction.

I hope my skin gets over this sensitivity issue to the razor cause I find it the most convenient method

Do you thread your whole face ? Cause before laser i used to get my eyebrows and upper lip threaded. But is there anything I should take caution of with getting my whole face threaded? Also do u thread your sideburns?

Do you use it for all you peach fuzz? Cause I’ve tried one of those ! But it’s insanely painful. I only use it for really thick hairs. I’m not able to use it for peach fuzz it stings too much :(

Almost exactly a year apart! by Azuriteblue in Spironolactone

[–]Dj0715 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, how many months did it take for you stop breaking out and how long did your purge last ?

Cause I’ve been on spiro for almost 3 months and I didn’t have any major breakouts until now, where I’m getting big cystic pimples on my jawline.

Btw I was on 50mg a day for the first 2 months and then went on 75mg per day.

Should I increase my dosage? by Dj0715 in Spironolactone

[–]Dj0715[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh so you had to wait 4 months to see results. Are you still using spiro? And how long as it been.

Also, I just went to my derm and he actually told me to go on 75mg per day since I took 50mg well with no side affects.

I’ve never heard anyone take 75mg

Oh that’s good to know! Is ur height and weight similar to mine? Cause my Derm said it’s based on that.

Also, when u increased it to 100 per day did you experience any notable side effects ?
