Test, itch and acne

Vanilla Mandingo · Jan 15, 2011

Last spring when my test got over 550 I got itchy nips and itchy scalp. Anyway, doing my thing again, no nipple issues but scalp is so f-in itchy it's driving me crazy. Has anyone else experienced this. Yes, I have dandruff bad, as of a week ago, and I have been using Head and Shoulders the whole time.. I use it year round. Also, the acne started getting really bad at the beginning of this week. To make this interesting, I just started a blast of dbol, an hour ago. (I just got it when I got home.) Isn't accutane now recalled or something? What are you guys with acne issues doing?

Get some nizoral shampoo it is much stronger than head and shoulders but it is expensive wal mart has it for like 15 bucks for a small bottle.

I feel for you, I get the same thing. Love test, but I get acne like no other. I haven't solved the problem, but tanning really helped. I don't know if it made it better, or just made it less apparent.

I also shower frequently, change shirts, use an oil control lotion, slather proactive 2x a day and take alcohol baths. (not doing any favors for my skin.) That's all I've got.

It's my understanding that Accutane is a viable option, but I have not taken the plunge.

I've been hearing about law suits from accutane users. I guess I was wondering if anyone new of a different drug to use in it's place. I'm wondering if the drug caused problems randomly or to people who were using it excesively or something. I'm now scared to try it.
