Avatar f tn I am dark skinned (my parents are from India) and have darkened inner thighs as well. I went to my dermatologist for acne treatment and as I did a little research I realized I show symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome.. darkened skin, acne, weight, etc. I think it's worth it see a doctor, my family doctor was reluctant to refer me to a dermatologist but I am so glad that he eventualy did because I think I'm getting somewhere.

Avatar n tn Hello, Acne is due to an overactivity and plugging of the oil glands.The main cause of acne is increased levels of hormones during adolescence. Acne usually lasts until age 20 or even 25. It is rare for acne to leave any scars unless picked. Just keep you face clean by washing with a mild soap atleast twice a day.Pat it dry and do not rub it.Avoid picking or pressing the acne.You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime.

Avatar f tn I'm 33 weeks and I had my first consultation today after being diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I haven't had the best time emotionally with this pregnancy (been feeling down due to stretch marks, fatigue, acne prone skin, lots of pains, etc..) but I'm determined to make the best of this situation not only for me but for my baby. I'm totally fine with having to take my blood sugar 6 times a day but I'm so thrown off by this diet.

There are some treatments available for this condition. By using topical treatments prescribed by your dermatologists, such as biological acne scarring treatment where in the old, damaged tissues and scars are replaced by new cells.

Avatar n tn I would like to know what has developed on both sides of my neck and is extending to the back of my neck and to my shoulders. They are skin colored, soft, round and sometimes I feel heat from the inside of them. They are slightly raised. I am wondering if they may be cholesterol or hormonal related?
Avatar n tn Outside of hot-flashes, no other side-effects. About 3 weeks I got a rash or acne in a small area on my face. It now goes over my nose, on my upper lip and some on lower lip areas. Iam 57 and always had a good complection so I'm not sure if this is acne or a rash. Could this be caused by Arimidex?
