Welcome Amazingrace!
What is so great about here is that many people use different treatments according to what works for them or sometimes just preference.
Myself, I do not like meds either (but not too many people do I think.) However, topicals either over the counter or prescribed were doing nothing for me so I went on Acitretin and became almost clear. It was a good choice for me at that time. Now I choose to use coconut oil to help with the small areas that occur. I'm constantly keeping watch though and have to say if I start regressing too much, I'll go back on some type of medication to control it.
Glad you found your way here!
