A member asked:
Since having a baby 1.5 years ago, my adult acne has gotten progressively worse. nothing seems to treat it. is some sort of lab testing appropriate? (i started trazodone 100mg. about a year ago. wondering whether theres a correlation, as well.)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More likely,: from irregular ovulation, polycystic ovarian syndrome, insulin resistance. Testing for relatively high estriol, or testosterone can be helpful. Possibly an adjustment in any contraceptive medication can help as well.
