Started my test 400 cycle about 1 week ago. Doing 200 mg 2x a week, and taking arimidex EOD .25

I'm getting more acne than normal on my face and back/neck. I haven't broke out this bad in a long time.

Not too bad but few pimples on my face atm and it sucks!

Could this be the arimidex or would the test be causing this?
 
I'm new to all of this but from what I've read its probably the test doing it but you should be ok and should clear up once your cycle is over ! I can't wait to get some test E " if i can ever find a legit source ?!?!" and start my first cycle too !
 
From my experience I also noticed acne on my face early (after 2 weeks of test e) and i never had it as a teen although it cleared up pretty quick and then didn't start to get back acne till around week 8 and that took a while to clear up...

I'm pretty sure you are more prone to get acne while on the gear because of androgenic activity, so your skin will be more oily.... the best thing you could prob do is use non scented soap and try to shower as much as u can pref around 3 times a day... prescription medication for acne isn't very good for you some pretty nasty sides so I would recommend not going down that road.
 
you can get acne on week 1 yes , probably test

some report adex helps acne BUT more important you shouldnt have started adex on week 1 , you dont need it on week 1 yet ... best to use only if needed
 
Agreed. However, please keep in mind that the post cycle therapy (pct) is the hardest part of everything...Meaning since your getting some acne now..your probably going to get it even worse once your cycle is over and your going through post cycle therapy (pct). I say this from experience. Some cycles I get none..depending what compounds im taking.

I have trouble at the end once the TEST+ is starting to get out of the system. Causing blood levels to go EVERYWHERE (which is what causes the acne).

Just keep in mind that the best thing you can do is try to keep your levels even..which is a bitch sometimes to do. Your new to the game so experiment with what works for you. Try different products (have different ones on hand..some work better then others).

Hope this sheds a little light on what your going through.
 
Well the acne kind of passed. I have a pimple here and there but pretty minor.

I was told to start the arimidex from day 1 of the cycle? either way, I've been taking my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) every other day at the same time (.25) and doing 2 injections per week at 200 mg each pin.

Everything seems to be fine at the moment, I am in week 3 of my cycle.
 
Make sure to shower twice a day that really helps and get a good face wash and use it the second your done lifting
 
What everyone says is true, but sometimes you get bad acne just from running bad gear.
Now I don't havev scientific backing for it but I can say it from experience and a lot of the guys that I talk to who has done a lot of different labs agree with me.
