Trt only and bad should acne

50 yrs old, 45mg test cyp in the delts every 2 day. I don’t do other anabolics and was wondering if this is normal, I get the odd zit on my back but very rare, they are all over my shoulders for now. Is there a way to battle this, they seem to be smaller with a hard white piece when popped. Thank you.
 
Try using head and shoulders on your shoulders or back area. Might help. I know mine on my chest was none existent when I used H&S or Selsun Blue. But I was also spraying salt water on my chest and letting it dry to help dry the skin. Compared to acne on top of acne. It was pretty bad at one point.
 
It's normal if you've had acne in your youth.

Youthful T levels, youthful acne.

Presumable you have somewhat oily skin that's gotten oilier on TRT?

The only permanent cure is a course of a isotretinoin, Otherwise is endless careful skin hygiene with salicylic body washes, changing shirts frequently, avoiding dairy, and the occasional 30-60 days of doxycycline antibiotics when it starts to get out of control.

I went the isotretinoin route and wished I had done it decades earlier.
 
I just go a months worth of doxycycline see how it goes. I will try the other suggestions as well. My acne as a kid was not this bad on the shoulder areas….but maybe I am eating a little unhealthy, I will try to tighten up on the unhealthy calories a little more.
 
I would say that my skin has not gotten oiler since the high trt treatment. Maybe I have not noticed, but hopefully the doxycycline helps, if not I have no idea what the doctor will suggest. I am going to hunt down the salicylic solution, although it seems that canada is much lower in potency than down in the u.s.

Amazon Canada should have this, quite effective even if used every other day. Best used with a washcloth for slight abrasion:
