[quote=Anonymous]I developed cystic acne in my late 30s. I had very dry, eczemaic skin until then. Sudden onset led me to my holistic-leaning gyno who thought my cystic acne was due to a huge increase in soy protein disrupting my hormones. I wasn't so sure and went to a medical aesthetician who thought it best that I get $ monthly facials and referred me to the practice's physician who'd likely put me on a low dose antibiotic. Developed one cystic acne spot per month, right before my period. I understand that typically acne on jaw line and chin is a result largely hormonal. Decided against taking an antibiotic. Suffered on and just this month, saw my gyno who told me to eliminate soy this month...I'll report back, but I am hoping that by complete avoidance of soy, I will stop these awful cystic pimples.[/quote]
