Hi,

Thank you for trusting our website.

Nearly 80% to 90% of all adults experience acne during their lifetime.
You said it gets worse after masturbation and it is possible because hormonal levels alterations are primary cause of acne.

- The primary goal of treatment is prevention of scarring.
- Wash affected areas with mild soap (Purpose, Cetaphil) twice a day.
- Washing face more than two to three times a day can decrease oil production and cause drying.
- For mild acne Benzoyl peroxide, 2.5%, 5%, 10%; begin
with 2.5% at bedtime.
- For moderate acne Tetracycline 500 mg twice daily for 3 to
6 weeks.

Ask me for more.

Take care.
