How To Treat Acne?
I had Tubectomy done after my 2nd baby. My periods started after 3 months of post delivery. My face is covered with acne now. I know it is hormonal because acne started when my period started. Don t know how to solve this problem. I have tried all home acne treatments.

Hi,
You seem to have acne vulgaris most probably due to hormonal imbalance. Other factors like anxiety,tension,stress,insomnia,oily food,pills..are the exacerbating factors. Take azithromycine 500 mg three tab per week for few months or till good result. Clindamycine gel application at night may improve the disease. Avoid all factors I suggested to prevent the relapse of disease. Cleanse the face with cetaphil lotion. You may become alright after few weeks. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
