PP perioral dermatitis

Hey there!
I'm just curious wether any one else has experienced post partum perioral dermatitis?

Mine appeared about 6 weeks PP, same time my period came back.
I can't get rid of it!

I'd just like to know if anyone else similar experiences and what worked for them.

Thanks in advance!

I had it years ago but not post natal. Incase extremely stressed. It was so bad my whole lower face was covered.
I tried all sorts of cures but eventually had to see gp and had antibiotics. This worked and its never returned.

Amazing! Thanks so much! I've been trying a few different things- probiotic, cleansers cut out fluoride toothpaste etc but with no success. It's been about 7 weeks now. I'll visit the GP also! Thanks again

I did all that too. Honey and yogurt on my face lol.
I had Doxycyxline I think. I googled it and took the print out to the gp.
