I anyone currently using it? I am having major acne issues and I think I need to start doing something before my entire face is covered in pimples.

Really?!? That is what I was using before becoming PG. I just assumed it was a no-no.
I am really not sure if the current acne I have is something i have always had but suppressed with meds or if it is pg-related. It is soooo frustrating!

Re: proactiv
I haven't even asked my OB, but I haven't used my Proactiv since my first pregnancy 3 years ago, and my skin has been bad both pregnancies. I just didn't like the stuff that was in there and using it while pregnant.
But I do know a lot of people still use it while pregnant and their babies are happy & healthy.

Re: proactiv
I'm still using it but I don't use everything - just the cleanser and the moisturizer. I stopped the other 28947286 steps in between.

Re: proactiv
Do you ladies think it's worth trying Proactiv for PG-related acne? I've never had bad skin before, but since I got my BFP my acne is out of control. I wonder if anything will work against these hormones?
