Been taking Spiro and saw palmetto since the beginning of March and I am happy to say that I've been through another cycle of PMS and I'm still clear. I got two tiny pimples from my last PMS, but they went away very quickly. Nothing like the breakouts I used to get.
It still sucks though that I have to still wear makeup everyday to cover up all the red marks that are all over my face. It still 'looks' like I have acne when I'm not wearing base, but when you touch my skin it feels very smooth.
Good to hear it is working for you. PMS is the worst time of the month for me too. I have one question for you- Once you stop taking spiro will the acne come back, or do you have to take it forever?

Spiro doesn't stay in your system for very long, so yes, the acne should come back if you stop taking it.
OK thanks Member. I would like to find something that will clear my acne for good.. so I am considering accutane. But if the doc won't give me that then I will ask about spiro.
Hey mem86, I was just about to ask about your spiro progress =). Nice to hear it's still working great for you. I've only been on spiro for 35 days, but even in such a short time, nothing else including accutane has made me even half as clear!
I finally found something that works but I'm a guy so it's only a short term solution due to the POSSIBLE long term feminine effects. I don't want boobs! Anywho keep us posted & good luck. BTW are you finding it difficult to fall asleep or is it just me?
UPDATE: Still Clear on Spiro
