    acne and vitamin B6

    I am a 43 yr old who has suffered from acne for most of my adult life.

    I have tried most treatments over the years including retina A and
    antibiotics to no avail.

    Recently I discovered a website which explained my acne. I cannot remember what it was called I just typed in Acne - Vitamin B. Some women's skin over react to the male hormones (androgens) produced at a certain point in the menstrual cycle. Vitamin B6 has been proven to reduce the effect the androgens have on the pores. Another site suggested that Vitamin B6 needs B12 in order to be effective. Subsequently I have been taking a B Vitamin Complex for the last 3 weeks. The results have been unbelievable. I am not using anything at all and my skin is clearing up - no boil-like pustules on my chin for the first time in years.

    I have never posted anything before but if your acne is hormonal please give Vitamin B complex a chance or at least research it - i wish some-one had told me years ago.
