I have thought about it and was told by the dermatologist that it is an option but i wanted to use Accutane as a lst resort really. I am hoping to get married in the next year or so, (am actually putting it off because of this damn skin problem) and would like to start a family soon after so i am hesitant to go on the high vit A. Trouble is the longer i leave it the later i can start trying. GRRRR i am just so sick of waiting and hoping that the next thing i try will be the one to 'cure me'.

Also, not sure if it is me but does acne generaly only plague PCOS sufferers if they are on the thin side of normal? I know lots of women who have the weight problems of PCOS but they all have flawless skin as far as i can see. Why is that? I am sure there are examples that dont fit in with my theory but it was something i noticed.

I am going to give the Met a month and by that time the antibiotics i am on should have had an effect also. If they havent i will have to consider something else.

Thanks for your advice though...always appreciated xxx
