My roommate (who doesn't have PCOS) got it prescribed for her forehead acne. It worked really well for her - her acne is really under control now. GOOD LUCK!![]()
I just started with a new dermatologist, and after telling her I had PCOS she put me on 25 mg of spiro. Well that wasn't doing the trick so last week she upped it to 50 but my acne was so bad that she gave me 3 injections (BAD)! Then she wrote me the script for benzoclin. Now, I know she upped the spiro but that was wed of last week and since starting with the benzoclin my face has totally cleared up! I am so hppy! Try it!
Yep I use it for roseca and acne and it works great! I usually slack off on using it cuz I'm forgetful.. but if I stop and notice acne again, it takes only about 2-3 days to start having results.
Just a warning, it bleaches anything it touches, so make sure to use white facecloths, or at least old ones!
Yes! I've been using it for years. Good to mention the bleach warning...I've ruined many towels and sheets because of it.It's well worth it though.
Wow, totally forgot to mention the bleaching thing... I even notice it on my handtowels from when I wash my hands after applying the medication, it still bleaches the towels. But I don't care because it works so well! Let me know of your success with it!
i've been using it for 3 years, i only use it a few times a month though.
it's great if you need clear skin for something the next day
otherwise it seems to wash the color out of my face!
i've ruined tons of washcloths/towels and pillow cases from going to bed too soon after putting it on but it works wonders!
