Breaking out before a period?/

About a week before I get my period, my face breaks out just horribly!!! Everywhere, and its red, inflammed, and it really hurts. It happens every time before my period is there anything that would help my face so it wont break out before my period anymore!!?? Please help

Answer #1

Yes, birth control does apparently help minimize break outs. If you are going to go for facial products though you can try proactive.You don’t really need to have acne to use it and it clears everything out as longs as you are consistent with it. You can use clearsil but it tends to dry the skin after a while and if you use the pads, it will burn and irritate your skin as well. You can always try men’s facial products like nivea or l’oreal, they are a bit stronger than women’s products and are more sensitive to the skin’s needs since men shave, right? So you skin will be cleared of all the dirt and will look smoother as well. Drink lots of water too and keep your skin hydrated. Wash day and night, any more than that will cause your skin to become dry and it will feel tight usually around the jaw area and chin.

Answer #2

If your not on birth control try getting a prescription to help with your acne. I used to break out a lot before my period and when I started my bc I would only get a few small zits instead of all over and very noticeable. Ask your doctor about it.

Answer #3

I totally understand! … Try washing your face with Stridex Wipes every morning and night you can find stridex wipes in Walmart, Walgreens, CVS… Ect… Also … Get some Clearasil facewash and use it everytime you take a shower…
Hope this helps!!

well its pretty hard to prevent it and it depends on your age,if your a teenager then its probably puberty,but some ways to help are clean your face every mourning,night,and any time during the day that you think about it,you should also see a dermatoligist if it continues to hurt and he/she can give you some medicine,and if your old enough you could get some birth control,not for sex but because some of them limit your periods to 4 a year.

hope it helps

Answer #6
