    They never itched. They were painful. Now I seem to have a fungal rash that I have about a year. That inches like crazy. At night I have treated it with iodine to kill off the fungus. It has calmed down. Also I have been taking Lugol's iodine drops. The last time the iodine wasn't completely absorbed by the skin. I sometimes mix a drop in with my skincare. Aloe Vera and coconut oil also seem to help.

When americans find out chinese people are eating dogs, they lecture Chinese ppl that they shouldn't, start petitions to ban dog meat, etc. Isn't that hypocritical? Why force Chinese ppl to ur beliefs but vegans can't get upset that Americans are eating pigs and speak up about it?

    You have taught me more in this one video than I have learned from my doctor and endocrinologist. With my pregnancy I got the bad hormonal acne around the jaw. Now, going through the change, the same thing is happening. I had no idea it was hormones. Hair on the face, hair on the head thinning. They say my estrogen is just a wee bit low but not enough to do anything about. They won't give me estrogen anyhow because my mother has estrogen induced breast cancer. So hormones for me is a no go. Guess it's time to see my gyno. Thanks Dr Dray!

    It’s interesting that she mentioned dairy being a factor. It’s true in my case, when I consume dairy products I tend to break out a lot so I cut those out of my diet. But while I was in Europe this summer, I started drinking milk again but it didn’t trigger my acne, nor was it hard on my stomach as I’m lactose intolerant. I think it definitely has to do with the garbage that is put in American foods .

    La Roche Possay Toleriane and SPF fluid is really good and gentle. Also, Bioderma hydrating serum is also great and gentle. I had really bad hormonal acne on my jaw a few months ago but I realised that less is more. I just treated my acne by calming and hydrating it by using a mild cleanser, Bioderma hydrating serum plus 2 drops of Rosehip oil. My skin is cleared now and my goal is to treat the scars. Drinking lots of green matcha tea helps too :) Love your videos Dr. Dray

    I have been dealing with a overactive pituitary gland (the past 11 yrs) with a benign tumor which has been “fun” to say the least. The acne, hair loss, and migraines have made my 30s a living hell. I could never find tips to deal with this condition. The tumor is now gone, yet the pituitary is still at wild levels (up to 20 something at times). Here I am at 41 years old and getting my acne under control. I wish I had found you earlier. This is a great video!

Shortly after I stopped taking the meds, my hot flashes came back with a vengeance and I am now dealing with cystic hormonal acne. . .ugh!! ☹️ Back on the meds and have topical liquid clindamycin phosphate (just watched your video on this product and will incorporate 10% benzoyl peroxide and differin in my routine). I am desperately hopeful I can get this severe swelling down before a big meeting/presentation I have in 3 days. It is not fun being over 50 with cystic acne.

    VERY painful around the neck area. And the hyper pigmentation is frustrating as well. Thank you for touching on the fact that hormonal acne is a disease, its difficult for people with clear skin to understand and most do judge by thinking you're dirty or unclean and unapproachable. Its definately something to over come as a teenager with acne and now an adulybwith acne. The tip is to just try to ignore your appearance and the appearance or others. If you dont judge people yourself, you'll be less likely to feel as though you're being judged.

    I have hormonal acne and my skin normally has episodes around ovulation and through the luteal phase (when pms symptoms arise) and chills out once I pretty much start my period. I am pretty much trying a skincare routine based around my cycle and will see if that works. Supplements I have notice will probably help. Antibiotics are a no go for me because I took one for a year and my body became resistant. Not just that, but it WRECKED my gut bacteria. I take probiotics and a pms supplement, so far with everything mentioned I have seen a reduction. But, not obviously a cure. Anyone reading this with hormonal acne- you are amazing, you'll get through this. I understand your pain- it doesn't define your beauty. I love you ❤️

It's a whole new experience but I'm learning to love my skin like this because there's nothing I can do besides wait for the dermatologist.

    I still get a few big hormonal bumps but only 3 at maximum monthly now. I’d like to share that coming off my birth control (that I was actually given for my acne) is what helped the most. However for the month after I stopped it, the flare up was awful and I do still have scarring on the jaw from that.... However, it has been 90% better since stopping all hormonal birth control. It took about 4 months to totally go away after stopping it but one of the best things I’ve ever done.

I used to have bad acne at my chin and now it seems to be mostly on my jaw/cheeks. Something that has really helped me lately (like you mentioned) benzo-peroxide cream has helped me over everything including diet, healthy lifestyle, etc... another huge helpful for me is..............!!!!!AVOCADOS!!!!! honestly it has really helped. I'll explain why..... avocados are high in omega-3. Omega-3 are anti-inflammatories, and omega-6 are inflammatories. Primitive humans used to consume a ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 of 1:2. Nowadays on average humans consume an omega-3 to omega-6 ratio of 1:27. This does NOT necessarily mean that we are eating unhealthy, as we know, omega 6 is healthy for us. but it is important to know how much is good for us.....etc etc. Thanks again Dr Dray.
