WTF? Acne on SHOULDERS?


Recommended Posts

The only things I'm on right now is ambien cr 12.5, I've upped on the seroquel to 100 mg, and though I'm out of it now am usually on klonopin prn. I have never before in my life really had any acne much less any on my shoulders much less this intense. Could it be the recent upping of the seroquel? I was thinking maybe it was because of scented soaps but nowhere else on my body is affected. weird.

it could be meds, though i haven't heard of ambien causing skin issues (usually it's the anticonvulsants that wreak havoc on the skin.)

how old are you?

hormonal changes are a bitch. some people have perfect skin all through puberty and get acne on their chests and/or backs (or faces) in their 20's. some people have 100% clear skin until perimenopause, etc.

you mentioned scented soap, is it a soap that you have never used before?

I'm almost 39 so it could be perimenopause. It was one of those scented body washes but only my shoulders were affected. I'd never used it before. It's starting to dry up now as I bought some seabreeze but it is still weird. Yep it's probably hormonal. I have endometriosis so it plays all kinds of havoc with my hormones. I guess this is just one more weird display.
