Thanks for choosing wwwhealthcaremagic
it is obivious that the acne is symptomatic of androgen hormonal levels on the higher side. what ever you have taken are standard methods of treatment so it is perfectly fine but these can't cure but can control the problem . So best is continuous use of Diene for a few months. I also suggest to get free testosterone level, SHBG and DHEA levels done at 8.30 AM . if you are overweight , you need to follow a regimen of daily moderate exercise like 30-45 minutes of brisk walking and stop taking sweet/ fried food. Even 5 kg reduction causes considerable improvement. Another aspect is stress. It always causes irregular food intake, poor sleep so disturbed biological rhythm and raised androgens . so you can't think that we can cure but only control with appropriate Dietry modification and exercise regimen.

No, let me clarify. it will not trouble you throughout life. As age advances to near 25 or 30, it starts to regress by own because the hormone tend to stabilize or go down. Till that time, some discipline in life will do the trick.
