Acne - Anavar: Thread to Discuss Acne Prevention/Treatment while on Cycle(s)

[fitgirl234]

Hi Girls!

OK, so I did a lot of searching and couldn't find a good thread where a consolidated amount of experience and feedback existed to help mitigate breakouts/acne while on cycle.

Things I've read:

- Take P5P before you start a cycle - Really? How much?
- Accutane - DANGEROUS to the liver, really dries out your skin = BAD news, last resort
- ProActive- Any one?

What gives with this forum, takes an act of congress to have a discussion lol.

yeah, i found it really difficult to get replies too fitgirl. i don't know why no one replies!!

i just finished a Anavar (var) cycle and am now on my second. i started to get some acne with it, i just used some natural stuff to help it. showering and changing into clean clothes and washing my face with facial wipes as soon as i'd finished my workout. usually i'd go home and shower there. every morning and every night, using tea tree facial cleanser, and when acne did occur on my face/back immediately treating it with neat tea tree oil. i also took a bunch of vitamin supplements, like general multi vitamins and a vitamin B complex and also zinc.

i haven't had a problem since, and my skin tends to break out with the least little thing so that should help.

I have to say that is funny ^^^

Sorry your not getting many replies, the women's forum is not as active as any other forums since 95 % of the members are males & not many ladies stick around..
I've never suffered from acne, so I don't have any personal experience to share.. but I've always washed my face at least twice a day, and I rinse my face before I rinse any shampoo & conditioner from my hair, hardly ever wear make up and if I do I make sure I wash it off before going to bed & drinking lots & lots of water helps too.

When u run a cycle your hormones will produce sebum & too much of it can clug up your pores, cause an infection & give u acne... not sure how effective acne products out there are, if u get really bad acne that doesn't go away after a cycle, u might need to treat it with anti-biotics... orall & topical.

Thanks girls, I just started my Anavar (var) cycle (going to post a log) today, I came into British Dragon Oxanabol - (their ana Anavar (var) ); stuff is legit checked a few different websites. Pale orange pill with a 10 and score in the center, something like that.

I am using P5P 2x daily @100mg total and l-glutatione @500 mg 2x daily. I wash my face first in the AM and PM always, my favorite is Kiehls and Aveda washes - love the smell.

I have some prescription stuff in case it gets ugly.

Started out at 1/3 of a pill so approximately 3.3 mg, I'll do that for 5-days and go up to 5mg and on from there to a max of 10mg if all works out. I have a microgram level scale so I can break up pills and make exact measurements.

Anyway, I'll post up a log, my goal is 10-weeks with my husband to build glutes. I suffered a slight hammie tear early in the year and was setback some, plus my glutes are my weakest area. I can squat and barbell lunge 95lbs no problem but glutes were slow. Definitely would love some feedback on my program and insight as I want to compete in the spring in NPC.

Cheers!

MY acne on Anavar (var) has gotten pretty bad. i have prescription topical stuff but has not helped very much. face, upper back, and chest.. wish there was a way to get rid of it

mines has totally settled down with using tea tree EVERY day, twice a day. i had it pretty bad on my face and back. i use the tea tree oil body wash, then a toner, then neat tea tree oil applied to affected areas, letting it dry out before i put clothes over it. seems to be working, mines was pretty bad too

where can you buy that from?

 

[stargirl]

it's a natural oil, so places like the Body Shop should sell it - or any pharmacy type shop or store. it usually comes in a tiny bottle, which lasts ages as you need to use just the smallest dab on an affected area. you can either use it neat or dilute it with cooled, boiled water - it is the most effective thing for getting rid of acne whatever the original cause of it

I was fine on both anavar cycles, but just finished 10 week primo about 4 weeks ago & had a breakout on my chin at the end! Still not gone & I never get spots- primo is some strong shit

that's useful info, i was thinking about primo next and i'm used to anavar just. how did you find the primo other than that? similar to anavar at all/better/less good?

 

[frenchy121]

Sorry for very late reply! Anavar (var) made me very strong, I gained weight. Primo I looked better... But totally fucked with my hormones, no period for 3 months and these spots around my chin are still there :-( think ill lay off a cycle until next year.. Stick to Anavar (var) & winnie

Hi ladies
I wanted to chime in here, a little late, sorry. I have used anavar a few times, always got acne especially at the end of my cycle. I did a primo/anavar cyle and got quite a bit of acne as well. My next cycle I tried just primo - 100mg per week, and after 4 weeks i never had any acne. I decided to add the anavar back in, and voila...acne started. so for me, its the anavar that gives me the acne.
only thing that helps keeps it under control - melaleuca oil

to stargirl... the primo definitely gave me better/faster gains. my voice changed, quite a bit deeper, especially when anavar is added with it. clitoral enlargement, yes. greasy greasy hair, i gotta wash it every day. but for me, these are things i can deal with, for now. i have never gone above 100mg per wk
hope my info is not too late for anyone!

I use a little retin-a on my pimples I get from cycles... Usually works. I use .1% it's the strongest one.

What dosage were you taking and for how long when your acne started getting bad? Ive never had issues with acne just an occasional pimple but Im holding onto my bottle of 10mg capsules until i find out as much as i can about this before doing my first cycle.
