  My chin acne is forming it's own colony! It SUCKS!! I wash my face like crazy, it doesn't help...

  
  

  
  
  

  My History:
  Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara
  Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010
  Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish
  Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel
  Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count
  About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash! Had to sign a paper to even still do IUI- BFFP (big fat freaking positive) Go figure!
  1st Beta 13dpiui 54, 2nd beta 48 hours later 115, 3rd beta 48 hours later 310, 4th beta 72 hours later 1748.

  My whole face sucks! Some days it looks fine, the next it's terrible!
  
  I love the Belli pre treatment scrub. It does make a difference in the overall redness and acne for me.

  I had it too, it DOES go away quickly. Just hang in there.

  
  

  I was on crinone, so it's possible, though I certainly wouldn't rule out our other hormones either

  @Hmgavin‌ - definitely double check that, because I thought I'd read that both benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid were both off limits - or class C - not enough research, so only use if benefits outweigh the risk.
  
  I myself have developed a nice little gathering of pimples at the end of my nose since I abandoned my face wash with salicylic acid.

  My face is still broken out at 20.5 weeks. I finally got a script for clindamycin face cream. Its category B. Hopefully for you it will go away when the progesterone supplements end, but for me it didn't.

  I have face acne here too! Mostly around my chin. Starting in my 2nd tri, I used Neutrogena once a week. It was getting that bad no matter what else I tried.
