I'm 21, I've never had any acne before till i took cytotec and misoprostol for abortion and had an allergic reaction, i also took doxycycline during the same period. Big pimples started to appear. 6 months down the line i started applying hydrocortisone cream and it massively reduced the acne problem but has not yet cleared it. what should i do

Hello dear. Since 6 months or mote have elapsed, this is due to a hormonal imbalance.  Make sure to exercise daily and remain hydrated. If pimples are painful or increasing in number, please consult. Take care
