Dear Kristy,
I am very interested in the comment you made about prenatal vitamins
clearing up your acne. I have had problems with adult acne for years
(large cysts, scars, etc.) and have been on and off at least a dozen
antibiotics, creams, gels, etc.
Can I please trouble you to be more specific? Did it prevent new
break-outs? Did it clear up 'old' cysts?
I am very excited about this new possibility!
Thanks!
