Not to be a party pooper, but that's what I get and I was diagnosed - It IS rosacea but early stage. It is caused by inflammation, which women with PCOS already have. It makes sense to go hand in hand with it. I'm a fair redhead, which means I was destined for it anyways with this damn colouring lol. I go red when upset, nervous, excited, angry (real red then), etc. Sometimes out of nowhere I go red... then I realize it is happening and I go redder!! On my face, neck, chest and sometimes even my arms. I find trying to relax and pretend it isn't happening helps. Using gentle products on face (make up and facewash) plus there are anti-red creams (Rosacure is one, but I am breastfeeding so can't use it). Also - I found that gently stroking a COLD used green teabag on my face day and night helped reduce the inflammation and redness. This is actually a proven method - there are green tea creams out now too. Give it a try!
