Mine has been dreadful since I went off the pill in October and I've been swaying girl for three months now. My back, shoulders, throat and the "edges" of my face (jawline, chin, on my forehead by my hairline) have been gross. Lots of small, pus-y pimples. What's odd is that I got this same kind of breakouts during my first trimester with both of my kids (both boys). So I'm presuming that it's definitely hormones at play (good or bad, I don't know!).
But at least it's not just you. I'm with ya!2005

Yep, I have cysts on my chin. I also thought testosterone, but I am feeling so calm and not confrontational, so it can't be testosterone. I do think it is related to the sway.

You can get crap skin from the pink sway, definitely! Dry skin, lack of fat in the diet causing thickening of skin oils and plugging of the pores in addition to ingrown hair follicles, and higher carb intake which can feed skin bacteria that causes whiteheads. Honestly I think the pink sway may be worse for the skin than the blue sway is. A lot of times I have gotten panicked q's from blue swayers who are worried their skin is getting better on the blue diet!!
People have this notion that you only get zits from high testosterone but there are lots of reasons why we get zits (and many different kinds of zits to get - some have nothing to do with testosterone at all!!)!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

There is a condition called keratosis pilari that 50% of all people have, it causes your skin follicles to produce thick oil that then plugs the pore and can cause cyst-y pimple-y looking things and ingrown hairs, esp on jawline, chin, neck, around hairline, eyebrows, butt, upper arms and thighs, that look and act exactly like pimples but are totally different critters. It is often aggravated by pregnancy and are also aggravated by dry skin and a lack of fat in the diet.

No, not a silly question at all!
I didn't let anyone other than my husband know I was expecting until after my gender ultrasound because I thought it would stress me out too much and make me have GD when I really didn't care too much about gender either way.
I did sway pink but it was not a traditional sway at all, it's in the Sway section.
Some people have gotten headaches on vitex. For me, it made my AF really light.!!! Questions?? Check out the NEW and improved Complete Index !!!

Hello, Atomic hopefully you will see this! It has definitely been a while. I am not TTC, my cycles have been MIA for over a year, I'm quite certain. I have not been charting but haven't had it....
Not sure where to ask not TTC
