My hair loss story started 7 years ago when I took my first birth control pills. Within two weeks i has tremendous amount of hair loss - I lost probably two-thirds of my hair. I stopped the pills but the hair loss stuck with me. Some months were better than others but over time I just see more...
Day # 1 Today was my first day of taking 50 mg of spironolactone. I've been sitting on this prescription for a few months but after seeing how horrendous my skin was getting, i just decided to take the plunge. I don't think my acne is hormonal per se as I have it all month long but the worst...

First of all, I see one of the most informed doctors in my area. She is a walking encyclopedia in her field. This has worked for me. I am so glad she recommended it! Normally I would be broken out in my chin area rightnow.
Writing this review regarding the dose on Spironolactone and to give some people a bit of hope if the low dose doesn’t work. I had severe cystic acne (2 years) and was put on 50mg of spironolactone in June 2019, up to October it didn’t do anything, disheartened and worried I’d have to go on ac...
I'm a 32 year old woman who started struggling with acne on my chin, jawline, and neck probably 3 years ago. It started getting progressively worse no matter how well I washed my face. I used Proactive, Clean and Clear, Neutrogena for normal to oily skin, amongst other products and NOTHING could...
