Spironolactone Experience?

Hi everyone! I’ve been on spironolactone for my acne for almost 2 weeks now and wanted to know if anyone wanted to share their experience. Since starting spironolactone, I have been experiencing a lot of cystic/under the skin breakouts around my chin and temple area, and wanted to know if anyone had the same reaction! I currently have 5 red and painful under the skin spots on my chin — it has never been this bad, even when on my period.I was prescribed this by my dermatologist to target my hormonal breakouts and know that it takes time to work. I just don’t know if this “purge” or initial breakout is normal!

I’m in the same boat, would love to hear if this is temporary before the clear skin starts being the norm!!
