Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi there I'm only stage one and get one large boil size off a golf ball roughly every 4 weeks, but I have started the pill and been just over 3 months clear, how many off you are on the pill or have any off you tried the pill, I've felt for years my hormones were all over the place then thought that maybe my flair ups were connected to time off the hd month ect

    I was on the pill for a while.

    I do know that Humira has helped me with my severe HS. I've been off the Humira for a while and the HS came back and is so painful to me that I'm going back on the Humira. (I went off the Humira because I was afraid of the possible side effects. But the pain from HS is so severe that I have to let go of that fear and just use the Humira.)

    I wish you the best of luck.
