Suggest Treatment For A Huge Cyst On The Forehead
can cystic acne happen as an early sign of pregnancy? Also I am a 29 year old female 145lbs, athletic, have hypothyroidism but am maintaining normal thyroid levels with medication and my husband and I are trying to get pregnant. Today I noticed a huge cyst on my forehead that looks like a small goose egg now.

Yes cysts can occur due to acne .The grade 4 acne is also known as nodulocystic acne.You can apply topical clindamycin on the affected area.It is a pregnancy category b drug.Oral medications like isotretinoin have harmful effects on the fetus and thus should be avoided right now.
