Hi
I'm not sure what else to do; I have used all sorts of facial products over the years but still break out monthly during my ovulation/period. Should I be taking a particular drug monthly? Primrose oil worked for a short time but the acne returned. What else do I do. It's distressing...please HELP.

ANSWER
Your skin problem is an hormonal imbalance if the problem only arises at the time of ovulation. I suggest you see your GP to recommend suitable medication to correct your hormonal imbalance and work from within. You should also take good care of your skin on the outside and use a suitable cleanser, toner and moisturiser daily. Regular facials at a salon are also recommended to keep your skin looking clear, flawless and moisturised.
