I have read several posts on acne post op due to our hormones going crazy. I have never had acne, not even in teen years do I just figured it wouldn't happen. WRONG! I feel like I'm a teenager. Had to buy my first acne treatment as I'm nearly 28. Lol. If thats the worst I will take it over being fat forever. Anyone else have it too? I'm 6 weeks post op...and just readdded birth control but that is supposed to help!

I have this reaction from the darn protein shakes

ok. I thought I was losing my mind. Im 4 weeks post op and have a terrible acne breakout. I'll take it any day! on the loser bench now folks!

I am nearly 8 weeks post op and have had crazy acne since the surgery. I thought maybe it was because i quit taking the BCpill before surgery, but it doesn't seem like a normal monthly breakout to me at all. It's worse and constant.

Hope it is a phase and goes away?!?!? Gah!

ME TOOOOOO!! Face and chest acne.. wash twice a day w- treatment. Nothing working.. My teenage son says now he knows where he gets his acne from?? HAHAHA

I seem to get more pimples post-op now, especially around my period. I've always had a few pimples here and there, but now they come with vengeance at that TOM. I guess it's all those crazy hormones :/

Oh great.... something else to look forward to. :pout:
