[quote=Anonymous]+1 on the diet PP. I’ve had bad cystic acne since about 15 and went on hormonal BC. That plus consistent visits to the derm kept me generally clear until I went off BC at 32 to get pregnant. Face broke out, hair line got thinner. Was diagnosed with PCOS after 12+ months of not getting pregnant. I got naturally pregnant less a month after my diagnosis, so I didn’t think much about it. During COVID, I’ve been breaking out nonstop. Back in April, I finally sat down and read about the link between diet and acne. I’ve worked really hard to reduce added sugar, dairy, and refined carbs. My skin looks sooooo much better. I’m not perfect, but I generally give myself some leeway on the weekend. I do wish I had done the elimination diet, because now I don’t know if it was added sugar, dairy or carbs that were doing me in. But I can tell you that I’ve craving those things less and now they (cake, cheese, pancakes) are a treat like they should be. [/quote]
