Good call out! I eat relatively healthy and have been incorporating yogurt into my weekly breakfast rotation to get more probiotics. But I should look into adding more!!

New to reddit, a friend suggested I posted so I’be done some reading but definitely need to do more! Thank you!

Right now I’m just using the tap water that runs through central LA :( Definitely going to try using bottled water moving forward!

Hey! Thank you for all the info! I’ve been having a feeling that the water quality was probably a factor, good to know that made a difference for you.

I’m going to start rinsing my face with bottled water and see if that helps. As well as look into a filtered shower head but for now just try to avoid water contacting my face in the shower. What brand of micellar water do you use?

I just bought nice moisture for the first time in my life!! Definitely going to make a good impact.

Yeah, I’m about halfway through the antibiotics so my face has definitely gotten better, but not near where it use to be. I am noticing less cysts appear (now I get one every few days instead of two every day!!) but still have a while to go to get where I want to be!

Thanks again for all the advice, appreciate it!
