    Default fertility drugs and acne

    Anyone find that their acne gets worse with fertility drugs??

    I'm on my 3'rd round of clomid and mine is worse in that it is always cystic. I have struggled with acne my whole life. I am not sure if I can continue on much longer with this. I average getting them injected with cortisone every 10 days.

    Clomid is not working and so I am considering injectibles..but I fear they will make my skin even worse yet.
    Anyone have any stories or advice to share, I would love to hear!

    I don't have any advice, but when I took Clomid I would notice my face would break out too. Sorry. Good luck though!

    I noticed that when i increased my clomid dose from 50mg to 100mg, my acne improved.

    After my first round of clomid last month my face went crazy.

    Mine stayed the same on Clomid (only 50mg until this month) but improved with Metformin (I know not a FD as such). I start 100mg next month and am hoping it won't get worse.
