That kind of acne apparently is becoming more common as young guys turn to steroids:

yeah seems like it kind of removes alot of oils and lubrication in the body and that is good if you have too much oil in the skin/pores but then it can also remove the fluids in your joints, so not good for performance and you can develop athritis if on it for too long

The way the skin can look initially can be absolutely brutal, like keep this person away from me LOL.

Maybe not interesting to most but I had to look up the proposed mechanisms. As I'm getting older I'd like to get ahold of some Retin-A cream but it's Rx and haven't bothered to source it. Collagen production, thicker skin, less sagging and wrinkles.

Ah okay. I have heard it can get worse initially. I have seen insane dry skin scaling with fantastic results later on. One young guy at the gym they told had to get off his legitimate TRT during although I don't think that would have been necessary. He had major joint pain from the drug, couldn't really lift, and physique went to shit temporarily.

Accutane can fuck you up psychologically, even to the point of psychosis. Vitamin A is serious business.

Why did a young guy need "legitimate TRT" ?

I watched a random YT video on this kid a while back.

Eats nothing but junk food and is obviously on the spectrum or severe ADHD.

He should be in a zoo. 50IQ.

Why did a young guy need "legitimate TRT" ?

He said he felt bad, depressed and low energy. Visually in the gym I couldn't see he was "low-T." He was relatively strong, like a 460 deadlift, 280 bench IIRC. He went to a doctor and he was diagnosed. There were repeat tests, checked LH levels to see if it was primary or secondary and so on. This to say it wasn't simply a testosterone level check and here's your script like at a US clinic (as opposed to an endocrinologist for example), it was legitimate. He is also screened later to make sure he's not on additional anabolics and to see where his T level is. He had never taken steroids before. He got the long acting Nebido shot and the change in appearance and strength was dramatic. Less than a year later he deadlifted 660lbs. This with T levels only in the normal range.

I watched a few seconds, "look at his balls... they smell like shit." I was a bit amused haha, probably acting for the camera, haven't really seen him before so don't know if he's really stupid

Sometimes a deep voice can be irritating to me for some reason.

Breathing like trenbolone.
