Sick of hormonal teenage skin :(

For about 2 weeks of the month I have horrible spotty skin and it really makes me feel shit. I'm not on any hormonal contraception and even when I was it didn't make a difference.

I feel like a total child, not a grown up married mother :( especially at baby groups! We've recently moved areas and I want to make friends but I don't feel very confident in social situations at the best of times and I'm self conscious with makeup on too.

What can I do about it? Pretty sure it's hormonal, so do I have to just live with it?

Just bumping this thread as I was lurking and stealing ideas watching with interest.

I was on dianette for an extended period of time in my early 20s and it did nothing for me. Neither did antibiotics.

Thanks to this thread I've got my hands on some Panoxyl so I'm hoping for a miracle now! Any idea how long it generally takes to work? I'm having a terrible flare up at the moment so it would be great if I can look forward to some improvement over the next week or so (hopeful).
