OMG! I'm pretty upset right about now. So, some of you may (or my not)  know that over the last two years my Estrodiol levels skyrocketed into 1st/2nd trimester prego territory. It took a year and a half of no hormones at all to get them down to "normal" levels, which was about two/three months ago. Since then I've gotten pimples!!!! like a new one every 5 to 8 days.... and you know how they linger for a while.

I feel like a 9-year-old boy!

When I use the muscles in my face, I can feel all these little dots of pain! EW! GROSS! People used to comment on my porcelain-clear skin. No more! So what do I do? If it's hormonal.. nothing except up my dosage?! or will it stablize and I'll clear up again?? it's been so long since I started hormones, and now, it's like I'm starting over and I don't remember how my body reacted the first time around...

Thoughts?

Hey Laci,
You should mention the kind (not dosage or anything) of hormones you are on and whether that's changed in the recent future, I think some people probably had the same bodily reaction. Me.
