Hi thanks for writing here.It seems you have got acne due to hormonal imbalance,also there are chances you may have polycystic ovary ,get ultrasonography done for it,avoid junk foods,do regular exercise,loose your weight if you are overweight.As far as treatment is concerned continue with ginnete 35 since it will reduce your testosterone levels.You can apply clindac a gel along with cetaphil cleansing lotion for wash.You can go for chemical peel and laser treatment along with medicenes which will give you additional benifit and clear your acne .
