[QUOTE="Libbaloo, post: 952408, member: 202107"] ps Forgot to say - yes she has tried oral and topical antibiotics but skin has got worse and it is starting to affect her confidence. She can cover it up with Bare Minerals make up which has good coverage and is supposed to help with zinc content and is non comedogenic. but underneath is still looks inflamed and bumpy with lots of small sebaceous glands and mini blackheads although thankfully no huge lumpy cysts. The underlying cause must be a hormonal one. GP also mentioned sub clinical PCOS (she doesn't seem to have any clear symptoms apart from acne) This is not worth exploring at this stage as it involves internal ultrasound which is undesirable if not yet sexually active or needing fertility investigations. However PCOS often linked with hypothyroidism. Daughter has enough to think about with studies looming again... plus wants to look her best for the parties and balls coming up. oh to be 19 again!
