I am 25 years old female. I have had acne since a long time almost 11-12 years I have used everything from homeopathy to ayurved to allopathy ,unani. I used accutane as well I cured my acne but after the treatment was over my acne came back. I git my blood tested and my testosterone levels were very high and then I was diagnosed with pcod. My Dr. gave me hormones and finast ,spironolactone, metformin etc I was good while on the medicine I got my ultrasound done after an year and there were no cysts at all I was advised to stop the treatment and so I did but after an year or so I was back to acne but only before or after the days I menstruated. Now at present I am not taking any medicines if I get a pimple here and there I use either benzoyl or retino it helps. But its been a month and I am getting big painful pimples on my jaw area and even between my brows and cheeks they are stubborn I even took doxycycline 100 but no use. P.S. I am a dentist so I do know about medicines that I took. But can you please suggest me as to what should I do I am already fed up of my face.
