I just finished my second cycle a about 6 weeks ago and finishing up my pct. My first cycle acne wasnt bad I did 10 weeks of test eth. from steroidsfax My second cycle I added deca and I broke out bad. Since I stopped its gotten a little better but still not gone. Ive been using panOxyl. Does the acne get worse every cycle. What else could I try I took acutane when i was a teenager which wasnt fun so id like to use that.as a last resort.

What were your doses of Test and Deca? Were you taking any AI and/or anti-prolactin drugs when on cycle?

Different compounds at different doses will make a difference.
100% this. I'm a low dose guy and NEVER had an acne issues
Avoid accutane if possible its quite a nasty drug.
Acne can be a result of fluctuating hormones. Once things stabilize it should get better.
Accutane works - there is absolutely no denying that. However, it is one of the worst compounds you can possibly take in terms of side effects. It is extremely liver toxic and carries a way more liver hepatoxic nature then any oral steroid.
Here are some tips for removing acne:
1. Sun tanning is a very effective means of reducing acne and drying out the skin.
2. Use anti-acne lotions at least once per day. Go to your doctor and ask him to prescribe you a topical acne cream. It'll work better then anything available over the counter and your insurance will cover it.
3. Make sure you are showering 3 times per day: upon waking, after workouts and before bed.
4. Zinc containing creams are very effective and available over the counter. Apply them to your trouble areas.
5. Black ointment is extremely effective. It stinks pretty badly, but I am pretty sure you can deal with it for a couple of hours in order to get rid of acne.
6. Baking soda is one of the best natural exfoliants you can use. Gently rub baking soda on your trouble areas when showering to remove layers of dead skin and help remove the acne.
Try all those tips first and if none of those work, then consider using accutane.

Are you in a place that is conducive to sun tanning, monmon76? If so, do it as much as you are able to up to two hours per day; one hour each side.

Agreed. Tanning works well against acne. Well played, Haskell.
Yes, living here in southern California, it works quite well for me. But for those living in, say, the southeastern portion of the U.S., not so much.

Well tanning out here is fine. You just get burned and get swamp ass within the first 3 min of walking outside.
No "swamp ass" here in SoCal, pal!
Oh sure, SoCal's near complete lack of humidity is, in fact, emblematic of it's quickly becoming uninhabitable. But that doesn't mean we can't tan comfortably in the interim.
