Hormone treatment for acne
Co-cyprindiol (cyproterone acetate with ethinylestradiol) contains an anti-androgen. It is no more effective than an oral broad-spectrum antibacterial but is useful in women who also wish to receive oral contraception.
Improvement of acne with co-cyprindiol probably occurs because of decreased sebum secretion which is under androgen control. Some women with moderately severe hirsutism may also benefit because hair growth is also androgen-dependent. Contra-indications of co-cyprindiol include pregnancy and a predisposition to thrombosis.
CSM advice
Venous thromboembolism occurs more frequently in women taking co-cyprindiol than those taking a low-dose combined oral contraceptive. The CSM has reminded prescribers that co-cyprindiol is licensed for use in women with severe acne which has not responded to oral antibacterials and for moderately severe hirsutism; it should not be used solely for contraception. It is contra-indicated in those with a personal or close family history of venous thromboembolism. Women with severe acne or hirsutism may have an inherently increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Acne
Treatment of acne should be commenced early to prevent scarring. Patients should be counselled that an improvement may not be seen for at least a couple of months. The choice of treatment depends on whether the acne is predominantly inflammatory or comedonal and its severity.
Mild to moderate acne is generally treated with topical preparations. Systemic treatment with oral antibiotics is generally used for moderate to severe acne or where topical preparations are not tolerated or are ineffective or where application to the site is difficult. Another oral preparation used for acne is the hormone treatment co-cyprindiol (cyproterone acetate with ethinylestradiol); it is for women only.
Severe acne, acne unresponsive to prolonged courses of oral antibiotics, scarring, or acne associated with psychological problems calls for early referral to a consultant dermatologist who may prescribe isotretinoin for administration by mouth.
Rosacea
Rosacea is not comedonal (but may exist with acne which may be comedonal). The pustules and papules of rosacea respond to topical metronidazole or to oral administration of oxytetracycline or tetracycline 500 mg twice daily or of erythromycin 500 mg twice daily ;courses usually last 6鈥?2 weeks and are repeated intermittently. Alternatively, doxycycline in a dose of 100 mg once daily may be used [unlicensed indication] if oxytetracycline or tetracycline is inappropriate (e.g. in renal impairment). Isotretinoin is occasionally given in refractory cases [unlicensed indication]. Camouflagers may be required for the redness.
CO-CYPRINDIOL

Maybe have a word with specialist in Holland %26amp; Barratt or your local chinese herbalist as they can be very good also.I need something that really works on bad acne skin i have it on my arms back and face?
go to your doctors, he will give you some lotion that really workd, unlike the off the shelf products
The doctor can give you something to help, alternatively Evening Primrose oil capsules are certainly worth trying I know they have helped quite a few people I know, give them a try, really cheap and you can get them from any supermarket, you may even get one that is combined with vitamin B which will work even better as it may help the hormones. Good luck
my mate had it really bad as a kid, he used tea tree oil products which helped a lot. body shop do loads of it
I think your GP is your best bet! they can prescribe ointments much stronger than that of a pharmacist. Many of the ointments given by your GP will contain steroids which I believe help greatly!
Go to HSN.com, and look at the ';SeriousSkinCare'; line. They have very good products and not expensive, to order for acne. I was watching the show yesterday, as the acne line was on and it has very good products for girls, boys, women, and men with acne. They will deliver it to your home. I use HSN often for beauty products myself, except I am on the dry side. I use the ';Serious Skin Care'; line and its wonderful!
Good luck!

can sympathise. i never found a commercial or prescribed product that worked other than short term. however, chinese medicine worked and worked very fast and permanently...i'm normally very sceptical about this stuff and only tried it out of desparation.
I strongly recommend you go to a dermatologist. I have delt with acne for many years as a teenager, in my twenties it developed into adult acne. I have tried every medicine and home remedy there is, the only thing that worked for me was Proactive, it didn't dry out my skin or cause any redness like other medication.
go see ur doctor, i used to have bad skin and they have treatments that i believe work miracles!!!
consult the proper dr be4 putting anything on uer skin in which it might react badly too ok?. goodluck wth that.
look for a seaweed/kelp product.
When I was in the US Navy, I was able to go to England and there was a product that was sold over there made out of 100% Seaweed and Kelp. I used it for 2 weeks faithfully and I have not had any sort of acne since!
Try a tea tree face wash followed by an oat exfoliator, do not use an exfoliator with apricot stones or that sort of thing as it can spread the infection. Follow by using a moisturiser with manuka honey. Try and use a face mask as well such as bentonite clay as it is very good with acne and spots and works quite fast.
You can also use 40ml jojoba oil with 15drops lavendar (to help with scars), 15drops tea tree (to help clear spots) and 15drops palmarosa (to help scars and redness) before you go to bed.
I have been using this for a few weeks and have seen remarkable improvement, I would not take tablets as I believe it will not help the problem in the future.
Try to apply lemon. try continuesly for a weekk and any acne will go away.
I used to have acne and it becomes worse when sitting in the sun. I started talking a beta-carotene supplement which has helped alot.
Dr Schuesslers Bio Chemic tissue salts- They are safe and homeo-pathic. Try ';Combination D'; They are inexpensive and readilly available at health food shops- You could always google and find a on line stockist.
