Really bad acne before period?!?!


Question: Really bad acne before period!?!!?
I get absolutely terrible acne right before my period!. Like, amazingly bad!. I only get a stray pimple here or there normally but the week before my period i get horrible acne!. I can't get rid of it with proactiv, because it's not an acne problem, well it is, but it's being caused by hormones!. What do you think I should do about it!?

Answers:
i had a similar problem!. i solved it by going on the pill!. if you ask for a prescription, be sure to say it's for acne, because not all birth control works equally against acne!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used to break out (though not nearly as bad) before my period!. I just started taking yaz last month and my skin this month is awesome!. This could also be because I recently changed my face soap though!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'd say get birth control, I used to get bad acne before my period too, but it's better now!.

I hope that I helped you!. good luck (:Www@Answer-Health@Com
