[quote=Anonymous]is it possible that a specific estrogen in food is causing the cystic acne? I ask because I discovered (by doing a reverse elimination test, that is, I made certain that I ate the food) that edamame gives me cystic acne on my chin. Are you eating a large amount of tofu? Soy? In my case, I was binging on edamame ... Couldn't get enough! I'd never, ever had acne of any sort and then suddenly, at 37, had huge, painful cysts all over my chin. No edamame, no cystic acne for me. Checked this out with my doctor who was ready to write me a Rx for antibiotics to take daily (!) as a preventative measure. I asked what else he'd recommend and that's when I asked about my soy intake. Hope it is as simple for you...pregnancy and peri menopausal hormones (in my case) can wreak havoc on your skin.[/quote]
