'Round Ki's Way

It's been a long time how's everyone been?!  Life can be so busy and I have neglected my baby (this blog).  So I will update on what I have been up to lately because I know y'all nosey af 😂. September 18, 2018 I started Accutane (Absorica 80mg a day) I felt this was the best route for me since I balanced my hormones.  Accutane is definitely not for everyone, ,but it did work great for me! November 2018 traveled to Tokyo Japan for a week while still on Accutane!  Best trip ever and the ramen OMG can't wait to go back.   January 22, 2019 my last day taking Accutane!  Great thing is I hit my cumulative dosage in 4 months and not 5-6 months so I finished early. February 2019 until the present trying to live my best life!!! Accutane effects literally began day two of taking the medication and man the dry lips, corners of the lips cracking, and body aches aren't for the weak.  It was an experience that I don't regret, but I wa...

Doctor or no doctor 🤔 After months of trying this product and that products (all miracles right 🙄) I decided it may be time to seek out a holistic doctor since my dermatologists only wanted to put me on strong medications *shudders*.   Searching and searching only to feel like this ---->>    Then I felt like I won the lottery after searching for dayzzz and days I found who was supposed to be the BEST naturopathic doctor for women hormones in Australia *damn it* I can't fly there for a doctor.  Long story short he does video visits so I was sold after reaching out and asking him 1,500 questions.  Here is my naturopath if you are having women issues he is your guy.  You can talk period and hormones with him just like a bestie 👍 (not an affiliate link) http://www.healthyremedies.com.au/ So essentially to check your hormone levels a saliva test is the BEST way because you do the sames multiple times throughout the day and send it ...

Acne.... You are still here?! Hey y'all it's me here again.  Hmmmm where do I begin there was still more acne and it seemed to  continue to pop up in the same areas. Pop... pop...pop and still I haven't learned the concept that one should not pop these bumps so they were now irritated and felt like an open wound. Damn you acne.... So after more research seemed like that is all I did at the beginning smh.  I decided to give acupuncture a try and GOSH did I not know what I was missing out on.  The feeling you receive after having that done is ah-mazing (note to self schedule an appointment soon).  The needles went in my face, my arm, between my pretty toes, stomach and a couple on my leg. Acupuncture was sooooo worth it I was nervous at first but this experience was much needed and so worth it.  Plus my liver and kidneys were working overtime from the Nexplanon (I still had the implant during this time).   So I continue to try and...

The beginning.... of hormonal acne Hi y'all I'm Ki (creator of this blog) and this is the 1st blog post of many.  I'm here to share my dreaded journey of hormonal acne. Being a woman is hard enough at times, but one day your cheeks and jawline have massive pimples that seemed to have appeared overnight.  Me being the fan-fucking-tastic person that I am here I go POP..pop... POP.  The next day there were more and in the next few days to follow.      Seems like there were baby pimples even growing on my face and multiplying rapidly.  So being the great human being that i am I immediately made an appointment with not one but TWO dermatologists to try and get this taken care of ASAP.  The verdict is in....... Ma'am you are dealing with a case of hormonal acne and one would like for me to try Spironolactone and the other Accutane *clutches pearls*.  Neither of the medications I wanted to try so it was time to search for some holistic...
