Persistent pustular acne can be challenging, especially when standard treatments don't work. Since your hormonal tests and periods are normal, it could be due to other factors like skin sensitivity, lifestyle, or specific triggers.
Next Steps
I suggest consulting me online to explore advanced treatment options like isotretinoin or tailored skincare routines. Consistent follow-up is essential to track progress and adjust the plan as needed.
