Severe Acne On Face. No Help From Prescribed Doxytop, Xtranglo, Zyclin, Tretinion. Suggested Due To Hormones After Childbirth. Help

Hello Doctor,i am 30 yr female ....I started getting severe acne on my face for the past few months. Though I never had this problem earlier. my dermatologist prescribed me doxytop (oral medication 2 times a day ) and Xtranglo daily once and zyclin nano gel and tretinion 0.25 cream
but I feel my acne is increasing day by day. what should I do. I never had this problem earlier...I used to have a very clear skin...my doctor said this is all because of hormonal imbalance that every women goes through after their delivery( I have a 2 yr old gir). and i have a very sensitive skin.please help me through this acne.
