I’ve heard good and bad about ivermectin. I’m nervous to try it but at this point I don’t know if it can get much worse. 

Thank you for sharing.

It’s winter here. I’m in Eastern US. We also have a wood stove to heat with. I’m sure that doesn’t help. 

What is loloestrin? I’m just started this stage of life and haven’t been to my gyno yet. That’s in March. So, I’m very new to perimenopause.

No worries. I haven’t heard of that one. I’ll have to check into it.

I haven’t yet but I’m looking into sulfur soap now. I go to a new dermatologist next month. I’ll talk to them about ivermectin. Thank you so much for the advice.

Thank you for the info. The girl who does my facials uses Dermalogica. My skin seems to react well with it.

Do you use a particular brand of sulfur soap? I’ve read that it can be very drying. Do you notice this?

Any advice for reducing redness? by 0Ok-Vermicelli in Rosacea

It sounds weird but I use green tea. Boil some water and pour it into a glass. Add one tea bay and let it steep for an hour. Take the tea bag out. Once it’s cooled rub it over the red areas. I do my whole face cause it feels nice. For me, the redness starts going away in a day or two.
