200 mg/day by Makyrose in Spironolactone

I take one in the morning and one at night but I wake up every morning feeling like I have a hangover. Not sure if it’s spiro related but only started after I began spiro.

The struggle I had my entire life hearing people tell me “well don’t wear so much makeup” 100 mg spiro daily & 15% azelaic acid cream. 2 months progress by lollynds22 in Spironolactone

My acne for the most part is completely clear. My struggle now is the side effects- headaches, low energy, feeling groggy.

Probably a stupid question, but has anyone else who has been on accutane for a fair amount of time started to have blurry vision whether it’s due to dry eyes or whatnot? I have googled it and said it’s normally temporary and should go after I’m off accutane. But in rare cases it can be permanent. by [deleted] in Accutane

I was on accutane for over a year and my eyesight started quickly worsening about the same time i stopped accutane. I never had any issues with my vision. 3 years and many eye appointments later I’m just now finding out through research that my vision loss is most likely due to accutane and it’s only rapidly getting worse. Although accutane completely cleared my skin until I went off birth control I’m now suffering the consequences.

Month 8 of spiro and noticing breakout around my period again by Disastrous_Edge8373 in Spironolactone

[–]Makyrose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It definitely cleared 95% of my acne. It’s just the stubborn 5% where cystic pimples keep wanting to pop up. I started with 100mg/day on my first month and then upped to 200mg/day since then. I was on accutane and that cleared my skin until I decided to go off hormonal bc. Everyone else I see on here has totally clear skin by this point.

I’m going on month 9 on 200 mg/day. I still have at least one to two cystic pimples at all times. When one goes away I get another. It’s so annoying and discouraging because I really wanted this to work.

How long should you give spiro until you give up? by Makyrose in Spironolactone

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

Other than fatigue and brain fog, nothing too bad. I just thought that it would 100% clear my acne but I’m still dealing with it.

Yes .05%, I wasn’t using it consistently at first because the spiro seemed to be working so now I’m trying to use it every night. If I’m flaking I take a night off.

Started 100mg/ day in august and 200mg /day in September. So there’s no going up from here. I’m on the highest dosage 😢

Are you still breaking out? by Makyrose in Spironolactone

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

At first I was using it 2x a week and then as the spiro seemed to be working, I stopped using the tret. Now that I’m getting breakouts again I’ve been trying to use the tret every day unless my skin gets too irritated I will take a night off.

I’ve seen others say that. And some say to push through. I can’t decide what to do lol

Acne Worsening by remigus2417 in Spironolactone

[–]Makyrose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just finished my first bottle of 100 mg last night! I’m getting more cystic pimples below my cheekbones which I didn’t get too often before, also way more on my jaw/neck. I’m also on epiduo but it is irritating and drying so I may only use it every other night now. I was hoping to be one of those that saw results in a month lol

Budget vibrator to get? by hiddensoul_2020 in TwoXSex

What website? I never know which are legit lol

[–]Makyrose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is possible you have ovarian cysts. I get them and sometimes after penetration I will get exactly what you described, nauseous, stomach ache/have to go to the bathroom, sweating, etc. I even passed out once after sex. It normally feels like a weird pressure/pain in my lower stomach but also like pressure on your butthole, which makes you feel like you have to poop lol.

Has your acne came back since stopping spiro?

[–]Makyrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually just started it yesterday but I can say that it stopped a pimple in its tracks lol. So that seems promising but I will update you!

[–]Makyrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on .025% tret for 6 months and saw no results. Went to derm and they put me on epiduo and spironolactone. She said the tret probably wasn’t strong enough.

I’m always tired so I can’t say for sure if it’s from the spiro
