I have had that problem in early pregnancy. I'm like you. I may get a pimple here and there but nothing major. But in my first trimester, it's like I would get a couple and then as soon as they start going away, a couple of more would show up. I hated it!!! BFP maybe???? What CD are you on?? Oh, and thank you so much for your comments on my post yesterday.
Hi - thanks for your forum! For the past 6 months I have been trying to get to the bottom of some health issues (weight, fatigue, mood, and brain fog) - my thyroid seems to be involved but it's unclear so far. My TSH is "normal" 2.9-3.5. My TPO antibodies are high (">1300").
Hi, I do understand your concern. For some women, they may present with rash or acne on their faces during pregnancy. Hormones may play a role here. I suggest that you follow your physician's advice and stop the medications.If the rash is being treated as acne, then stop these medications as most acne medications are contraindicated in pregnancy. I understand you are jus planning to be pregnant but even topical medications get absorbed by the skin and stays in the blood.
I have always been acne prone, but I didn't really breakout on my face much, more my back and chest. SO, I get migraines due to the Yaz and stop taking it. My migraines stopped, but I broke out worse than EVER. I am 32 yo and my acne is taking over my face - especially my forehead. It is like bumps, that tend to be full of hard, round things - like a plug of oil. Rarely is it a true whitehead.
I chalked it up to pregnancy hormones but it got worse and worse. I am talking face, neck, my entire back, chest and arms. Painful acne. It was hard to sit and lean up against anything, even a soft couch or chair hurt so bad on the acne. It was cystic acne ALL over my back from my neck down to my waist and across my entire back. Everyone said it was pregnancy hormones. However, I had the baby in August and the acne actually got a little worse.
Hello- I have over 200 warts on my forehead and most recently I found them on the side of my face. I have tried castor oil which used to work but they seem to always come back. I have tried aldera cream, which did not work, and effudex cream that did work on most of them but always came back when I stopped the use of it. These warts are starting to come up every where now, on my chest hands, feet, and neck.
Hi, I broke out in a very itchy red rash on my arms and lower legs yesterday and had noticed a break out of acne type bumps all over my face over the last few days, which I felt was odd. My DH and I have been going through IVF(ICSI) and my blood test to find out if I could be pregnant is the 27th...

I have been on acutane before. I got off of it and I had worse problems than I had initially. Initially I had some "teen" acne which was very mild and didn't bother me much but my family wanted me to see a dermatoligist because acne runs in my family. My older sister had bad acne. They put me on birth control and acutane and my body did not react perfectly. The birth control made me sick to my stomach and the acutane made me feel as though I was burning from the inside...

I don't agree with your French doctor. Acanthosis nigricans is a skin disorder in which there is darker, thick, velvety skin in body folds and creases. This is normally found in people with darker skin, and as the above mentions it is found in the folds...armpits, back of knees, palms, etc. Less commonly, the lips, palms, soles of the feet, or other areas may be affected. These symptoms are more common in people with cancer. A skin biopsy may be needed in unusual cases.
If you do decide to have sex always use a condom, but well done for abstaining which is the only way to totally avoid unplanned pregnancies and STDs. With regards to your acne on your face and back see your doctor for a topical lotion or some oral antibiotics.
I'm going to tell you my story, and I would really like to hear from anyone who has had similar experiences. I have always had acne since about grade 7. My periods started getting kind of wacky, and when I was 18 I started noticing hair growing on my lower stomach. I immediately freaked out! (Like any other normal woman would) and went to every possible doctor I could. I was even having very intense pains running down my inner thigh coming from my lower abdominals.
Last year around May I developed what I thought was severe acne all over my face and back. I treated it with just about everything you can get over the counter. During the fall I began to experience brief but extremly painful sharp pains on the middle left side of my chest and would begin to get very dizzy nearly fainting...sometimes I could actually feel my heart beating through my ribs! I thought maybe they were just panic attacks, as the pain went away in a short period of time.
I have never been overweight other than pregnancy and soon after, with following a lean protein/ low glycemic vegetable way of eating, have lost any unwanted weight quickly. Well, that and moderate cardio/ weight training. In the last 3 years I have put on 25 lbs with no change in eating habits. I have developed insomnia (which I treat with melatonin and val. root) I have increased my walking/ decreased my calories. Nothing gives. I have been stuck at 180 no matter my efforts.

My daughter has the hep c antibody which came from an infected person spitting in her face a year ago when she had bad case of open acne on her face. At the time I read up and felt that her risk were low as of the blood to blood contact for infection seemed to be what everything I read at the time said. Now I'm finding out that the virus can live outside the body for 4 days and so many other things that I have yet to determine as fact.
I was irregular for a long time. I was diagnosed 3yrs ago. I am also darker behind the neck and in between my legs on the inner thigh. I was on Ortho for 6 months and then decided to get pg. No luck still due to some other problems I have. As far as the increase hair growth, when I had asked my fertility specialist, he said, it might be taken care of with some medication, but only when I am not preg. Since I am trying to concieve, that is not a route for me yet.
These flare-ups last for a week. This last time my whole neck and face was intolerable and my front scalp and forehead remained hot longer and broke out in a rash that I still have. It itches and the scalp is just slightly flaky at the site where it was the hottest. The rash is bumps that look as if when they touch, they become one. They are raised, tight and slightly pink, (not red thank goodness) plus itchy!!! I have eczema meds that don't budge it.
