lol, one of them lost alot of weight for me...the other put on alot of weight. And both developed KP, the one which put on alot of weight developed KPRF as well...and a much more severe case in KP.
My other friend which become pregnant not for me, this was a while back...well she also developed KP, and it become much more severe later in her pregnancy.

Hmmm, well, the one got paid to lose weight, not a bad trade off, but the price was KP. I don't know... The other one got a raw deal entirely! Are you even still friends? LOL
I initially got KP during my pregnancy. It ERUPTED during delivery and nursing... Talk about post partum! My mother-in-law kept telling everyone, "Oh, she's got a touch of depression" Heck, I didn't even want to leave the house for 5 months!!! Luckily, my husband practically pushed me back into the work force (thank goodness!!!) My KP didn't get any better at that time, but my "depression" certainly did!

Well to be honest they are all back to the size they were, with the money i gave them they spent it on things that would either burn fat or increase it...they have lost KP now, that's what i mean when i say each of us need to find the root of the problem before treatment will be successful...if yours is pregnancy, then maybe there is something else you must do...maybe ther is two roots to your problem.

All i can say is they found theres and lost it.

I am unsure of mine, it could be a number of things...so am totally transforming my lifestyle and image, am even trying to change the way i think...another words get rid of my stress and anxiety.

Hi allisonsullivan
I see...Actually my KP is different from yours. Well, I'm unsure whether was it due to that mud crawl or a genetic issue. Not really, I have yet to try out on that oil. May be in a few weeks time, I guess.

Hi All
Few years back, I read about this miracle cream from Africa and there are testimonials posted. You guys and gals may want to take a look http://www.elicina.co.za/

that cream sounds pretty cool

...i have got to go to a dermatologist in 9 days for a patch test and 4 days later i get the patches removed and recieve the results.

Actually, I don't think the pregnancy GAVE me KP so much as TRIGGERED it. Mine is genetic (of that I'm sure), and seemingly triggered by hormonal fluctuations. My sister got it in adolescence, my mom with her hystorectomy, and my aunt with menopause. Plus, mine started when I became pregnant, but ERUPTED when I delivered. They all have "genetic with a touch of hormones" feel, don't you think?

I don't think that mine is genetic. There is only one other person, that I know of, in my family who has KP and that is my cousin. And I didn't even know she had it until my Mom was asking me for Arbonne samples to give to her to try. Would it still be genetic if you are the only person to have it in your family...except for maybe one person? KP is just so confusing sometimes!
I first noticed my KP as a teenager...didn't think too much about it. When I became pregnant, it got worse & has stayed worse.

allisonsullivan · #38 08-07-2006, 12:48 AM

Sounds like a "genetic with a touch of hormones" case to me. But, I'm no doctor.

Remember, your parents, grandparents, siblings, etc. may have had it in the past and never known they had anything at all. Some people may have thought it was a "heat rash" or "adult acne" or even an allergic reaction. Just something to keep in mind when asking about it.

Janae · #39 08-07-2006, 12:58 AM

Very true. And all of my grandparents are gone, so I can't ask. Something to keep in mind, though.

Can guys consume Evening Primrose? Has anyone tried? Is it effective? What's your intake like (as in how often you take a capsule)? Anyone tried anything new?

You could trace back by asking your parents or relatives. They maybe aware of it...Let us all "walk the talk"...remember. Action! Come on.....!!!

hopefoolcure · #42 08-07-2006, 11:04 AM

Has anyone seen this?

Go to this website (http://www.dermadoctor.com/product.a...&productid=850) and look under:-

NEW! Independent Clinical Study Results:
KP Duty was shown to statistically improve the clinical findings of Keratosis Pilaris, including skin hydration and smoothness while also targeting the inflammation and redness.

hopefoolcure · #43 08-07-2006, 11:50 AM

Do you guys & gals think that it's possible for us all to look for all research and drugs firms website or contact and email them with our plead for them to really get started and seriously look into our skin condition than merely posting advises online or over their workstations saying that this "chicken skin" condition is non-life threatening and it's hereditary so only time can cure (what kind of remedy is it)? We need a real permanent cure. Btw, how can wrinkles be as psychologically painful than KP? That's not possible but I suppose those are easier money making machines for them because it's easier for those comestic aids or drugs to produce.

Why don't we (all individuals) start emailing to these firms and should they reply, we can post it here to share with all. Also we could have their email posted here at the same time so that others can send 'follow up' emails to them?

What's yr thought(s)?

It is hard to take action when there is nobody to take action with. The only person in my family to ask is my Mom...and she doesn't know of anyone besides my cousin.
And even if she did say, "Yeah, your aunt & grandmother & her mom had it", what difference would it make, really?

It is just like being genetically predispositioned to be overweight or be at a higher risk of cancer. It is good to know so you will be aware of it...but there is really nothing you can do about it.

Fyi, we (this forum participants) are all trying hard to work on things that others may not have tried. We provide suggestions to one another and also for the betterment of all. Further, we shall all work "hand-in-hand".

It's good at least you have asked your mom, so now that you have opened up and shared with us, you could see that we have things in common (i.e. some of our relatives do have this unsightly skin problem). Probably that's hereditary but be not demoralized. We shall continue to take actions and strive to work hard and look beyond ourselves. Why don't we try to contact relevant authorities worldwide and let our voices be heard? Who knows, future generations of ours could benefit from this "difficult" research done now than never.

Keep this in mind, be Optimistic about it - Quoting Khrissy3000's advice to me earlier on.
