How I Got Rid of Acne
Hi Nishat. Please visit a Gynaec 1st. She will suggest u some blood tests to find out if theres sum thyroid or PCOS problem. She will suggest some medicines for the same. Also visit a dermatalogist so that he/she can suggest you some topical creams to be applied. Hormonal acne is best tackled by medicines. Home remedies will only suppress the acne not remove it from root. I m telling this from my own experience.
Hi Nishat,
The only way to treat hormonal acne is to see a gynaec first. I have seen that rather than cosmetics, medicines and ointments prescribed by the gynec/dermatologist quickly provide relief to hormonal acne. See one asap 🙂
don’t try any home remedies… first visit a gynaec …they will tell the root cause…. then visit a homeopath …i have seen compared to allopathy homeopathic med for acne works better…
drink lots of water and also have good diet ..try to include green tea as well.
jomol is absolutely right… hormonal acne is more common now a days due to a disease called Polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) .. u need to check with gynaecologist to rule out the possibilities if any!!
Hi Nishat,
Hormonal/cystic acne cannot be treated with creams or home remedies. I had cystic acne 2 years ago. I can tell you from experience that hormonal problems are best treated with the help of a gynaecologist. I suggest you see a Dr. as soon as possible.
I have poly-cystic ovaries (PCOD – Polycystic ovarian disorder) and the Dr. prescribed a few medicines and suggested me to get a hormonal assessment done. Note that PCOS/PCOD is not really a disease, but a condition which will always be there (most women today are suffering from it). But it can definitely be kept in control by taking proper treatment, having a healthy nutritious diet, reduce junk food/fast food intake, and daily exercise (this is compulsory). My gynaec and even dermatologist stressed that regular exercise (atleast 30 mins daily) will keep the condition in check.
I hope I haven’t scared you too much with this info. :). Take care.
Take liver capsules like Liv52 and vitamin capsules. hormonal imbalance is also created due to lack of vitamins and due to improper removal of toxin via liver.I have accepted liver capsules as my holy grail when it comes to skin care.
Hi Nishat,
Major causes for Hormonal acne is PCOS and PCOD (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome / Disease). If you have a Hormonal Acne, and you are in 20’s, then be slow and steady. The remedies i suggest will work but then you have to be patient 🙂 First of all visit a gyneac nd get the tests done, go to a sonography center and get a ovarian sonography done, the report should detect any cyst if there. Very important dont listen to your gyneac and take more hormonal medicines. I strongly recommend you a homeopath. I have had a very bad experience with allopath. A homeopath should be able to treat you very safely.
Now coming to diet, i suggest you read this https://makeupandbeauty.com/diet-for-polycystic-ovarian-syndrome-pcos/
And for skin care visit a dermatologist. My derma did a very safe sali and spot peels on my face, i could really see the difference. Though the derma suggested creams with Clindamycin content, my homeopath strongly opposed it, saying it depresses the acne for time being and you may get worse acne later and instead suggested Glycolic acid cream in 12% and i must say yeah using my own brain and some research on what is better instead of blindly listening to docs really helped.
So dont worry, go get your tests done, visit a homeopath and a derma. One last thing, EXERCISE is a must for ACNE 🙂 Take care..mail me if you need more help. I take Sea Cod and Liv 52 too for healthy fat and Liver cleanup 🙂
Ooopsy..i forgot one more thing. For scars of acne, i dont use any creams, instead in the morning i just rub a tomato slice and apply a paste of multani mitti at night mixed with tomato juice for 10 mins, This was asked by my homeo to follow strictly and has definitely helped me 🙂 For day time i only use Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunscreen SPF 50 🙂 Be Beautiful 🙂
