Postpartum acne

I gave birth to my daughter 5 months ago. At about 3 mos. postpartum, my face started breaking out like crazy! Seriously, it has not been this bad since I was in HS and I am 38 now. Anyone else had this happen after pregnancy?

Also, I was on met until I was 13 weeks PG. I have not gone back on it. Maybe that will help?

Happened to me too but it was at 1 year post partum which corresponded with AF returning. It was bad cystic acne with a lot around my jaw that was different than acne I had before pregnancy. It's not as bad these days (2 yr PP) but it still hasn't gotten considerably better. Hope you find something that works for you!
