Hi girls. I'm new here and just finding my way around this site, in fact, this is my 1st post. However, I am not new to PCOS. I was diagnosed 9 years ago. I wish I had known this site was available, but just found out about it a couple months ago. Well, I was walking down an aisle in Walgreens, when this box caught my attention. It's a homeopathic treatment for acne. I am struggling with acne, and have for about 14 years! I just want to get rid of it. I have tried all sorts of outside treatment, but never ingested anything for it. Right now, I use Acne Free's Severe Acne and its helping, but I still get major breakouts when I should have my period, and I am just frustrated. I don't have medical coverage right now, so I am not getting treated, but I've thought about trying Accutane, and Minocyline, etc. However, before I go that route, I would like try something non-traditional, especially since those products were not made to treat women with PCOS- mostly just hormonal teens. So, I am wondering if anyone has used it, and did it work? Or has anyone heard of any horror stories? If anyone is curious about it, check it out at naturescure.com (oops, are we allowed to post other www?)
Thank you Soulfulqween! Oh, and if you're ok w/ not ever having kids, you don't have to be apologetic about it. =)

Hey. I know how you feel. I used to have really bad acne. So bad that I didn't even want to leave the house or look directly at anybody. Like you, I found natures cure at the drug store last year and decided to try it. I tried everything else. I started using it at the end of July 2007. By the first week in October 07, I noticed the acne slowing down. Then, I went from through all of November without a breakout, pimple nothing. Now, for the most part my acne has stopped. I think I got one pimple since November. It might work for you too. Just remember to take the tablets every day. And it might take a few months to work. My doctor prescribed clindamycin 1% topical cream if I ever do get a pimple. I hope this works for you.
Thankyou MissIndiana. Glad to hear something good about it. So, do you have to take it for life now? Or do you quit after your acne clears up?
