Frequent occurrence of cystic pimples
Since past 2 years, I have occurrences of pimples - both cystic and non cystic types. They are not scattered all over the face but appears in count of 1 or 2 - not in a specific location.
Also, since past few years I have observed that I get a pimple just before my period starts indicating the onset of periods and settles down as the period starts
