Acne
"I am 24 years old and my terrible cystic acne has returned worse than ever. (I was on Accutane several years ago which cleared it up nicely, but do not want to go back on it because of depression and irritable bowel syndrome). My dermatologist put me on doxycycline about 3 weeks ago. I started to notice a little improvement - the pimples seemed to be smaller and less painful, but now it&#039;s that time of the month and I&#039;m having a huge breakout again. I&#039;m also on birth control (Tri-Nessa) and a topical cream (Epiduo). I&#039;m hoping that the results will be much more noticeable in month 2."
