[QUOTE="madman, post: 152566, member: 13851"] When using exogenous testosterone in some individuals acne can be a common side-effect and ones genetics plays a strong role as to whether one will experience such issues let alone to what degree/severity. You just started trt and your hormones are in flux....so only time will tell as to what degree you will experience acne as your T levels will be increasing in the following weeks until blood levels stabilize. Dosages of T will also play a role as when injecting higher doses of T it will result in higher TT/FT levels.....let alone DHT and e2. Aside from many blaming excess DHT for contributing to acne.....there is much more involved as testosterone in and of itself activates the AR (androgen receptor) in skin/hair follicles and will result in stimulation in the size of the sebaceous glands/production of sebum which can en up wreaking havoc on the skin follicles causing pores to become blocked/inflamed leading to acne (blackheads/whiteheads/pustules/papules/cysts) in genetically prone individuals.
