22 year old female here
I've noticed lately that I've been getting a few dark hairs on my chin and under my jawline, along with acne in that area.My skin is all kinds of fucked up as well with those red bumps that swell and leave terrible scars.
I must have some kind of hormonal imbalance. Has anybody experienced this also and managed to fix it?
Figured this is the best place to ask
pic not me
do you suffer from acid reflux / heartburn often? how often do you shit?
>hormonal imbalance
Pretty much this. Go see an endocrinologist.
never had that problem. shit very regularly
SEE A DERMATOLOGIST
then go back to Jow Forumseddit
I do, and I shit every day. what does it mean user?
i had much worse acne than you and it only got better with accutane
not very helpful but it's always a last resort
Go Keto
WASH YOUR FUCKING FACE TWICE A DAY
WASH YOUR PILLOW CASES ONCE A WEEK
DRINK MORE WATER
YOURE WELCOME
Pls be in upstate New York

Don't listen to this guy. Washing too much makes your skin produce even more oils. I had acne for years and was just as baffled as you are. It turned out I was washing too often. I drastically reduced the times I washed and it cleared up literally in a week.
i really don't know what your diet is like, but try supplementing with some plant oil like flax and drinking soothing teas like peppermint or chamomile. i would always recommend detoxing your liver to everyone.
if you have acid reflux you are eating too much acid producing foods like grains or there is some imbalance created from foods like that over time.
>Figured this is the best place to ask
lmao
Are you a regular here? I have noticed many females on Jow Forums.
good to know

I only brought it up because it was relevant to the thread
Charcoal face rubs, cold showers (hot showers open your pores too much and allow blackheads and shit to get on your face) and semen retention (but you're a girl, so...idk).
stupid women
Get better genetics, hoe.
>hormonal imbalance
Not necessarily.
Half of women who grow facial hair don't have any hormonal abnormalities.
I've seen most acne conditions wrongfully treated with things like spironolactone, or accutane, when really it's either a water intake, pillow case, over cleansing, or bacterial issue.
Try this, user...
Get a 32oz bottle. Drink at least two of these per day to start. I drink close to 4-5.
Get 3-4 pillow cases, sleep on one side per night. You'll be flipping your pillow every night, and changing your pillow case every two nights. Change your bed sheets once a week at least.
I use a cheap clean and clear scrub after workouts and rinse my face with water during recovery days (I go to the gym every other day).
Hydration, cleanliness, and being gentle has worked for me. We live in a time where cosmetics are forced upon us for no other reason but their profit.
As for the facial hair, welcome to getting older. Just go to an electrologist. If you only have a few dark hairs it'll take them like 5 mins and cost $10-20 per session.
holy fuck go back to /b/
WASH YOUR PENIS BUCKO
for the acne just put a towel over your pillow every night, did wonders for me. the hair is probably normal but if you don't live in a shitty country where it'll cost you an arm and a leg, see a doc and ask to have your hormones tested.
1. Don't pick at it. That will make it far worse.
2. Don't overwash. Twice a day is sufficient.
3. If you have oily skin, wash with Neutrogena Clear Pore. / If you have dry skin, wash with a gentle soap, and rub a little vaseline on your skin after washing.
4. Stay away from junk food. Stick to meat, vegetables, water. Learn to cook.

The location of the acne and hairs sound like PCOS. You ever been checked by a doctor?
How long did it take for you to see results? Not OP, I’ve been on accutane for 35 days and it hasn’t made any difference yet, except my lips and my nostrils are extremely dry

desu i don't remember exactly because it was years and years ago, but i do remember it taking quite a while. A few months maybe. I would just trust your doctor, remember to stay well hydrated, use lotion, and apply sunscreen if you're going to be in direct sunlight for longer than like 30 mins..
99% chance you’re overweight.
Fat fucks with hormone levels-
Get your weight in check, the rest should get back in line too.
This could very well be right but you also should go to an endo to get blood test anyways, wouldn't do any harm. Accutane fucking sucks so try other things first
Most likely you have to up the dose.
I used to get the jawline acne for years, only within the past few months has it truly gone away. What I did to get rid of it was
>sleep on clean pillowcase every night
What I do is I have a bunch of old shirts that no longer for me and I sleep on a fresh one, flip it over, then switch to a new one so I'm changing the shirt I sleep on every other night. In theory you could flip it inside out, the idea is to never sleep on any one surface twice before washing
>wash face with facial cleanser in shower during the morning, wash it with just water before bed
I used to wash it twice a day with facial cleanser but I think that may have been too much as it didn't go away entirely until I did what I just outlined
>drink more water, don't touch your face
I used to drink milk at least twice a day, now it's just once a day. Maybe that also had something to do with it. All anecdotal but it's what worked for me
No sunscreen is bad for the acne, avoid direct sun but wear a hat
what? no sunscreen is fantastic for your skin
its like you have the reading comprehension level of a 6 year old
Can you be my gf? You are cute
accutane makes you get sunburnt like no other
it's like you have no idea what a comedogenic product is

You probably have a hormone imbalance. Too many androgens not being converted to estrogens. Diane 35 is often used to treat such imbalances.
Stop eating raw onions. Those are for men, not women. You aren't trying to become a man are you?
CUTE
unironically email me
oh emails don't work in the options anymore,
Christ if you really are a girl please just go to Reddit and find a woman board for skin care or acne or something. Why would you ask on Jow Forums?
Probably just hang yourself tranny
tits please and thank you
are you on birth control? i swear, half the chicks i know on birth control catch a bad case of acne from age 20-22 while their horomones adjust to their aging.
birth control pills are society cancer and poison the water supply. any chicks asking, "where have all the good guys gone?" while taking the pill need to look into the mirror. this degenerate shit is ruining our society and the symptoms are all around us AND NO ONE CARES BECAUSE THEY HAD SOME SEX AHHH
Ewwww that’s fucking nasty, slut
clean your towel more often, and clean your pillow case more often
you in Plattsburgh bb?
sounds like hyperandrogenemia
go to doc for blood test
Please be my gf
This is actually the best advice, people often neglect their pillow cases and use the same towel for weeks in a row. I use the same towel no more than twice and the same pillow case no more than a week
Go to a gyno and get looked at for pcos
You were born a dude and your parents just never told you that had your penis chopped off.
>I showed you my sebaceous glands now answer me
That looks like a bacterial skin infection.
Why would you want a man as gf? Shit looks like a dude
If you are not white, try not consuming dairy products for 1 month. After trying everything to fix my adult acne (24y) my doctor suggested me to stop dairy completely to rid me of my acne problem and it worked.
How much makeup do you apply daliy?
also do you wear that mask all day?
pls be gf
I took it 6 months, one pill a day. Acne subsided the last month, by the end of the treatment I had about a pimple a week, it came back a little just to almost disappear as of right now.
Also yes, dry nose/mouth was a pain in the ass.
drinking juice from lemons helped me when I had some acne. I was still in hs though.

Go see a doctor and get your hormone levels checked out
Up the testosterone - then post cute male penisclit

Stop mastrubating and or having sex and wash your face everytime you wash your hands.
Dermatologist are retarded and dont even know how to help you, imagine mechanic not knowing how to fix your car. phatetic
Don't wash your face anymore than in the shower.
Don't put shit on your face.
Change pillowcase everyday (fucking serious about this)
If you are eating junk stop it.
Try cold showers.
Stop eating everything except for meat.

It's 2018 old timers, you ask girls pictures of their feet now.
Eat less carbs.
Your hormones are off but can be regulated by eating less sugar, white bread, hi GI foods, drinking more water, and eating more unsaturated fats
The hormone “tests” don’t take every factor into account. There are tons and tons of inter-hormonal relationships that are affected by shit diet, hydration, and sleep
