Acne a pg symptom?

[Anonymous]

I am broken out like a teenager at 7dpo. Anyone had this as an early symptom?

I didn't have it is an early symptom, but in my first tri, I had acne all over back. (Never had it as a teenager).

I am in my first trimester and my forehead is covered in them... I am usually okay.

to be honest- this confused me- since before i get AF i get one pimple- but when i got preggo I also got a pimple- it just confused me on what to think and of course, it all came down to the pregnnacy test- good luck!

I noticed an increase in this the month after I quit taking the pill.
One sad return to normal hormonal activity

It was when I had a boy. My acne cleared up when I was pg with girls.

OP: did you do a trigger shot? A friend of mine was in the same situation you are in now and she thought it was an early pregnancy symptom, but then the doctor explained that it was the trigger shot that caused the acne.

i used to get acne on my chin and jawline when AF was coming. i didn't get it the cycle i got PG. but after that hoo boy, i looked like a 12 year old until about 4 weeks ago.

I did 7 trigger shots and got pg on my last cycle. I never had trouble with my acne in any cycle where I used a trigger until the one where I was pg. I'm sure it varies from one woman to another but for me it was a definite sign of pregnancy.

maybe it depends on the dosage of the trigger shot.

Well, turns out it was for me--my face was a mess right after ovulation and the doctor just confirmed my pregnancy. Happy for the baby, and hopful skin will settle!
