Natural Progesterone Cream!

I've used it recently to help me with hormonal issues related to my PCOS symptoms and a great side effect is that my hormonal/cystic acne has disappeared. Even the redness, swelling and irritation around my chin area from ingrown facial hair has almost completely passed in the last month.

I use Now brand Natural Progesterone Cream:

I have been rubbing a tiny amount on my acne prone facial areas as well as the recommended body sites on days 12-26 of my cycle(1/2 pump in morning and full pump at night) and i haven't had any of the acne or inflammation issues on my face. They cleared right up in a few days.

I hope this is useful for someone else.
