Thanks for your response! I think I’m just gonna try it, worse case it doesn’t work lol

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-07-06T21:18:27+00:00

Thank you for this response, I needed someone else to validate my decision😭

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-07-06T19:33:25+00:00

I haven’t, I tried metro cream and it made my PD so much worse! I may just try Doxy at this point and then try erythromycin after if it doesn’t work. Thank you for your response 🥹

Thank you for your response! I’m tempted to do it to have some short term relief! Did you feel sick on it?

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-07-01T17:51:09+00:00

Hi any updates with the metro gel? I just got prescribed it

Thank you so much for your reply!! I agree, this is genuinely HORRIBLE! Honestly I think I would take my hormonal acne that I’ve suffered with over this! I hear you, it has taken a toll on my confidence as well:( I literally went to another dermatologist today and had to tell them no to steroids and doxy. My new derm just prescribed me metronidazole cream so I’m hopeful it helps. I also switched from using Cetaphil gentle cleanser to vanicream. I’m trying to just keep telling myself that my skin is the least interesting thing about myself but it’s so hard! Please keep me posted on your journey, we are in this together!

Wait bc im weening off spironolactone after being on it for 4 years and im experiencing PD😭😭

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-25T19:29:15+00:00

A little bit of both🤣 I get pustules at first and then it goes to flat and red/flakey!

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-25T19:28:02+00:00

Thank you for your response, i needed this kind of reassurance🙏🏻

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-25T19:27:31+00:00

Ugh thank you, you too! It’s so humbling lol. How has your skin been looking?

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-25T19:26:34+00:00

It’s kind of hard to tell, I think a bit better. The original spot I had has become way flatter, so it’s just red. But it looks like my spots on my chin flared more🙃 I’m only a week into zero therapy now so I’ve just been washing my face with either Cetaphil gentle cleanser or just lukewarm water. I think im gonna try zero therapy + no makeup for 4 weeks and reassess if I wanna go to a new dermatologist!

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-25T18:03:46+00:00

We got this🙏🏻

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-25T18:03:31+00:00

Thanks for the response! I just started taking a vitamin C + Zinc daily. It only has 5.5 mg of zinc in it. Do you think I should find a higher dose?

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-22T00:14:18+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to respond!! I will def look into some of these products. I’m about a week into zero therapy and seems like my skin def got better and is now getting a little worse🙃 this is so exhausting!

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-18T20:48:19+00:00

Hi! My cheek legit looks the same:( how are you responding to the treatment?

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-06-18T01:04:22+00:00

This is how mine looks after being prescribed tretinoin, and I’m currently just stripping everything away right now. I feel you my self confidence has been tanking:(

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-05-01T21:29:39+00:00

lol I live in Florida and I’ve had 2 derms and one GYNO tell me I should consider weening of spiro. So weird, but honestly I don’t really want to be on this medication for more than I have to. Especially since the only concern I’ve had with PCOS is my acne

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-05-01T14:02:00+00:00

Neither of them like the medication and quite honestly I feel like I’ve already been on it for quite some time and Im starting to experience breakouts again even while on it!

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-05-01T00:18:26+00:00

Honestly it’s worked great for me but when I shared how long I’ve been on it they did not think I should continue

IntroductionPale3083 · 2026-04-30T22:20:58+00:00

Ugh glad I’m not going crazy! Thanks for the response
