“Are You Up To Your Wits End Trying To Rid Yourself Of Your Acne?” Acne is the worst. It can strike at anytime and almost always has a devastating effect. Acne is hard to treat and almost impossible to cure. Acne sufferers often feel frustrated and self conscious while treating to get the severity of their condition under control. But if you are suffering from acne, you know all this already. You know how painful it can be and how humiliating it can feel when you suffer from pimples, zits, or any kind of skin irritation. If you are like most sufferers, you’ve probably tried everything you could get your hands on to relieve your condition. You’ve probably visited every specialty pharmacy in a 100 mile radius, ordered dozens of different creams online and even contemplated buying a case of Dead Sea mud to rub all over your face. In short, if you are anything like me, you’ve tried every chemical, pharmaceutical or biomedical creation ever made to cure you of your acne problem. Let me ask you though, have you tried a holistic, natural way to get rid of your acne? You wouldn’t believe it to look at me now, but I fought my acne battle since I was barely out of elementary school. My twenty year journey took down every pharmacy aisle in every city I ever visited. I bought products that most countries wouldn’t let through their doors and I probably smeared more medicine on my face than any other man alive. Everything I tried, though, ultimately failed. Some treatments worked for a while and some worked for just an hour or two. But nothing helped relieve my pain for good. Nothing left me feeling clean and free of my horrible disease. That was until I found a way to cure myself for free with a natural approach. While I was in college, my acne was the worst. Anything that made me the slightest bit nervous would cause me to break out. I couldn’t plan a date without looking like a tropical fish. It was embarrassing and forced me to look for a solution anywhere I could find it. For my junior year winter break, I ‘vacationed’ at a clinic near Salt Lake City. The flyer said their high altitudes would clear my skin up. All it did was help my asthma. During my spring break of that year, I dipped my head in the Dead Sea to see if that would cure me. It did for about a while, until I had to start preparing for my final exams. I tried every treatment I could find, I didn’t care if it was natural, artificial or alien. If it claimed to work, I figured I’d give it a try. Something had to work, right?

“Avuncular, worldly, humane and open, Redmond is just the sort of guide women will appreciate as they negotiate their way through the startling and often unpleasant terrain of hormonal vulnerability.”

From the renowned director of the Hormone Center of New York: complete cutting–edge medical and alternative strategies for living happily with your hormones–including how to enhance your sex life safely with testosterone. According to Geoffrey Redmond, M.D., a majority of the 42 million American women between the ages of 35 and 55 suffer from vulnerability to their own hormones. Appearance, feelings–and even sex drive–may be affected. Symptoms include thinning hair, persistent acne, mood swings, low energy, loss of pleasure in sex, weight gain, irregular periods, and migraines. While the media has emphasized the problems of menopause, Dr. Redmond explains that many women experience hormonal miseries even in their thirties. Lab tests are often normal because the problem is not the hormones themselves but how a woman’s body reacts to them. Healthy, active women suddenly find that once quiescent hormones are ruling their lives. Because their problems are often dismissed as trivial, women who are hormonally vulnerable are frequently thwarted in their quest for help. Too often they are brushed off with remarks such as, “Your tests are normal; there’s nothing wrong with you.” This is tragic because, as Dr. Redmond demonstrates, hormonal balance can nearly always be restored with the treatments he details, which include individualized use of prescription medications, herbal supplements, lifestyle changes, and even spiritual practices. Many women have heard that testosterone can help sex drive, but most have not been warned about the damage that careless testosterone therapy can cause on skin and hair. In this book, Dr. Redmond, an internationally recognized authority on testosterone in women, explains the only safe ways to use testosterone. With informative sidebars, quizzes, and personal stories of women who have overcome hormone vulnerability, this helpful book will empower you to find treatments for your hormone problems that are tailored to fit your own body, biochemistry, symptoms, and lifestyle.

From Publishers Weekly

Stanford-trained, Bay Area dermatologists Rodan and Fields have demonstrated their over-the-counter acne-treatment products to mass audiences on television, and their telegenic charm carries over into this chatty but deeply knowledgeable and practical book. In defining what acne is (technically, a disease that makes use of bacteria), Rodan and Fields discuss their own skin histories, their families, their friendship and their professional beginnings: “So there we were in 1987, the only women in our practices (all our other colleagues were men), and the women patients flocked to us because we understood what they were going through. Plus we love makeup and skin-care products and pampering and we?d never tell our patients to stop wearing their makeup or stop going for facials if it made them feel better.” They worked years on a “spot-kill” product that worked pimple-by-pimple, before realizing that “by treating the full face daily, continuously, with a combination of medications, acne can be stopped at the source.” The rest of the book explains their Proactive Solution and Multi-Med Therapy regimens, and maps them onto various demographics, skin-types and problem areas, from “Babies and Children” to “Perimenopausal and Menopausal Women.” They are careful to take “Acne?s Psychological Aftermath” into account, and offer glossaries of product ingredients and technical terms. Annoying testimonials feel spliced in, but Rodan and Fields write with intelligence and care, and push their products in the clear belief that they work.

Like the other 17 million Americans suffering from persistent acne, Dan Kern fought a losing battle with his skin for years. And, like many, he suffered from self-consciousness and depression, trying everything, including prescription acne medication. Then, after much trial and error, he developed a simple step-by-step regimen, using over-the-counter products, that worked for him-quickly and dramatically. He shared it with others, and the thank-you notes started pouring in. Fast, simple, and inexpensive, this technique has helped many enjoy clear skin-and the confidence that goes with it. The book includes: ? A simple, step-by-step morning and evening regimen ? Acne facts and myths ? The biological basis of breakouts ? Simple behavior changes that can make a big difference ? Tips on shaving, cosmetics, and your skin ? Before-and-after photos

All of us probably remember being told, “Don?t worry, you?ll grow out of it,” when we had bouts of acne as teenagers. The truth is, though, that not everybody grows out of acne. In fact, acne can even begin in adulthood and, among women, even after menopause as estrogen levels decline. In addition to physical symptoms, acne sufferers often present psychological symptoms related to the condition like depression, stress, and low self-esteem. These psychological aspects of acne are often downplayed, and the condition is considered “merely cosmetic” and not a true disease. In the worst cases, acne sufferers have been blamed for their acne much like obese people are blamed for their weight, with the disorder being indicative of a lack of self-control, bad hygiene, or an unhealthy diet. But recent research suggests that diet is not a main cause of acne, and that acne is usually caused by the skin’s sebaceous glands being pathologically sensitive to certain hormones. Acne can also be a secondary symptom of certain diseases like polycystic ovary syndrome. This book offers a detailed discussion of the physical symptoms, causes, and treatments of adult acne. It offers you useful information about the various effective natural and medical treatments, as well as information on dealing with tangential effects like scarring. This book is unique in that it also covers the psychological aspects of acne, asking you to explore your experiences and feelings relating to the disorder. It includes exercises to build self-esteem and social skills and suggestions for relieving stress and anxiety associated with acne.

From the Publisher
