Dealing with accutane sides

Hey this is my first post so let me know if I’m doing anything wrong.
I’ve started my pretty basic cycle which is also my second one after a horrible 500mg test run without ancillaries to see how I respond, which consists of 375 test per week split into three injections of 125mg or half a cc Monday Wednesday and Friday. I did a 4 week run of 50mg oxymetholone between week 4-8 (had a PL meet during week 7). Been battling with cystic acne since the end of my first cycle (probably the heavy hormone fluctuations as my derm told me) now I’m on accutane 10mg ED and since the first of march 20mg ED. I’ve started my accutane protocol first of December and I’ve been starting to notice pretty heavy mental sides which have not always been there even when E2 was out of range.
Decided to lower my test dose for that reason and the sides are still there.
What is your guy’s opinion or experience with accutane and what can I do to possibly minimize the sides? Should I just pct and go natty or should I just keep going with the accutane?
Also my E2 is currently In range but still high. Sex drive is okay but sometimes I get slight ED if I inject a day too late or early.
Wasn’t really trying to use AI as my current dose keeps me in range but I’d be open to use some if you guys think it’s a good idea.
Currently on week 16 of my cycle and I was planning to stay on just test until 30 weeks and then either come off or cruise (also depending on how I feel since I want this lifestyle to be sustainable). I’m about to restock on test and I wanna know if I should get more ancillaries and which ones if I do. Currently I have arimidex on hand but like I said I’m trying not to use it if my E2 is in range. Bloods are also good other than E2 being slightly high.
 
I’ve heard others say similar things but for me it’s not accurate.

I weighed 140 lbs at age 16 and was prescribed 60mg accutane per day. Don’t remember how long but it was several months I believe. The oil stayed dried up for over a decade after that and I had crazy, oily skin.

fast forward to my second course in late 30s. I weighed 200lbs and took 20-30mg a day for like 3 months total and it only dried me out for maybe 5-6 months!

so next time I’m going for 60-80mg for some time in hopes that it’s the last time I ever n to use it. It’s absurd having oily skin at 42 like a damn teenager.
Do you b&c / trt? Or do you stay on for months?
Running gear changed the way my sebum glands produce oils and even off cycle I had oilier skin compared to when I was a kido.
Blast & cruising made it worse.
But last year I did one IPL session for my face and it permanently reduced oil production (by 70-80%).
But I still take 20mg accutane every 5 days as a anti-aging supplement to improve collagen and elastin.
Well i care about my face lol
 
yes and I have no idea of cumulative. I just used it for a 3rd time last fall but the oil is already coming back. Think I did 20-40mg for 2 months. i dried out but i could notice the oil coming back several weeks quitting.
Cumulative dose refers to how much you have used over your lifetime. Can you ball park it?

I think I had to do 3-4 runs of accutane before my acne was eliminated.

If you do another run 40-80mg for a while your acne should be close to being gone forever.
 
That’s pretty hardcore bro. I’m a risk taker by nature. And everything I have heard and read has been nothing but good about MT2. But for some reason my spidey senses tell me to steer clear of what seems like a magical substance. Just don’t feel quite right about it. Maybe it seems too good to be true.
Let me put it into perspective. I am white, dark hair but a slight tint of ginger in my beard. After 2-3 weeks of melanotan, my beard goes completely black to where people think I have dyed it. It is literally changing my hair colour... Yes, it is an amazing cosmetic side effect to have a black beard, but what on earth is going on in my body to change my hair colour like that. Starting to scare me a little now I think of it like that haha

That’s wild. Man, I really hope this isn’t one of those situations where 20 years from now everyone that messed with MT2 is dealing with issues. I’ve just been around long enough to find that what goes up must eventually go down. And if it seems to be too good to be true, it is most definitely likely that it is

Interesting I’ve never heard of that approach taking it indefinitely. But it makes sense.

yes I b&c. But mostly cruise. Proviron makes me extra oily but everything made me less oily than my natural hormones did. Well, less to maybe equal.
