Am I doomed to have acne my entire life because of my genes?
my dad had it in his teens and is now acne free
my mom never had it as a teen and now she has severe adult acne at 35. it started when she turned 20
does this mean i'm going to have it my entire life?
it started when I was eleven and has only gotten worse throughout the years
don't recommend me anything because obviously this is something i've been struggling with for years, chances are, I've tried whatever you're going to recommend and it failed miserably
I just wanna know if according to my genes, i'm going to be stuck with a hideous face forever.
I have been going to a derm. for 2 years now. helped about 2% but my skin is still worse than 999999.9% of teenagers.

How Come Most People Don't Get Acne?
Don't come in here saying "Everybody Get's It one time or another" because that is not true, having one pimple is different than having a face full of zits. 95% of people in the general population don't 1 single pimple on their face, my face lately? Has been break out so bad, I'm so miserable, my face has always broken out I have senstive skin, but lately it's like gottan really bad!! I can't remember the last time I went out and did something , I rarely talk to anybody at work, in college I was always hiding and not talking to anybody. It's affected me psycologically and sociolly really bad, I have tried excercising, every over the counter treatment, every home remedy, changed my diet, tried all prescriptions, and their isn't ANYTHING it all breaks down to genes, it's so depressing, I live by myself now and I ran out of food, and I been so embarressed to go out even shopping to buy groceries, most people in general are shallow and they are quick to judge you and look down on you, so it's not even worth wasting your time out their. People say "The only person worrying about it the most is YOU".. Well that is true, but I wouldn't be so worried, if I felt like I wasn't always around shallow people, if acne was more common than ppl would treat you more normal but since it's not they look at you like a monster.....When my face is clear I am totally different person, I love making friends, going out, meeting girls, and I do have good looks, and LOVE living my life, but I been suffering way too long I have turned into a loser with no life what so ever, I wish all these spoiled kids that live perfect lives would get cursed with bad acne, it's not fair only a tiny percentage of people get literally CURSED with this while everybody else gets a normal chance. I got a doctors appt in a couple weeks, I'm going to ask for accutane, I'm absolutely hopeless, I'm fixing to quit my job soon bc of it and move back home with my parents, I'm 20 btw.. And I'm gonna take the semseter off and start in the spring. I'm glad some people feel my pain, but not everybody does, they could only say "try PRO ACTIVE!!" gimme a break, all that is exfoliator, toner, and lotion, I can BUY all that for 5$ at the store it doesn't work. They show all these commercials "CLEAN AAND CLEAR AND UNDER CONTROL!!" those girls u can tell never had one pimple maybe a little tiny one nobody could see. Shoot I'll trade them faces any day, all the countless day I've wasted struggling I can't wait to get on accutane, sorry so long I just needed to vent :-(
How Can I Prevent Acne?
My three older siblings got acne when they were around my age. Although I've only had the occasional zit and pimple, I really, REALLY don't want to have a go with acne! Are there things I can do to help prevent acne or is it all in my genes?
Human Growth Hormone Stimulators?
Hey, I'm a 17 year old asian guy who's 6' tall. My ideal height is 6'4", but I'm not certain whether I can reach that height...according to my doctor, I've got an inch or two left in regular growth. She said that guys don't stop growing till 21, or when they start shaving the facial hair on their cheeks. My cheeks are still smooth, so I guess my growth plates are still open, though I'd need a test to confirm that. According to this site, http://www.betaller.com/growing-taller.htm , item #5 apparently stimulates your body to produce more human growth hormone naturally. Is this true? Does such a stimulator really exist? I asked my doctor about it, and she discouraged any form of human growth hormone, whether directly taken or indirectly through a stimulator. But then again, she's an old school sort of doctor - what she knows is rock solid, but she won't really touch the newer stuff. If she's right, apparently it's just not in my asian genes to get to 6'4" without some sort of enhancer, and that foriegn human growth hormone - whether directly taken or indirectly with a stimulator - always has some sort of possible negative side effects (like overgrowth of your bones). I read that such side effects definitely do exist with taking human growth hormone directly, but I also read that no negative side effects exist with stimulators. In fact, the sites said that stimulators show a number of positive side effects.
16 years old and 5′ 2”, should I take Human Growth Hormone (HGH)?
Is it legal for a doctor to give me Human Growth Hormone even though I do not have a disease and I just want to be taller? My mom is 5' 3'', so its in my genes. I've heard that if I am going to take hormones to increase my height I must do it now, there is not way to increase height once you've reached adulthood. Is HGH safe as long as it is administered by a doctor?
