retin a and pills

I forgot to date these photos, but Ive been pretty consistently taking the antibiotic, and the topical benzoyl, I added the low dose retin a little over a week a go or so.  Ive done the retin a before, without much luck. I think this antibiotic might be helping the usual "intial breakout" that the retin a usually causes.

as the photos show, not much progress and a new cyst, on opposite cheek...right now as I type, isnt looking to horribly bad..I think this was like day one on retin a..

HOW?

How do I hide a post from public view?

stupid thing

I tried to comment about the acne history question..

It does run in my family, my mom has large pores and not so great skin, she has suffered from a few cysts here and there, and zits, but nothing like mine.  My half brother also has pretty bad acne...and I guess my biological dad did too, its hard to say where it came from?!

Ive basically been told by doctors that it is genentic and hormonal..and that I will prob never see relief until at least menopause.

I am also going to make my journal entries private to public for now as I want to be able to share my progress to others that I may or may not want reading my shit!!
