Whats the deal with "Vitamin" A?

@Verdad So a small update on this.
I had been taking a large dose of vitamin A for a number of months the reason for that is when i took other androgen boosting supplements i tended to get acne if i did not also take vitamin A.
Well I have not taken any supplemental vitamin A for a while and am still taking said androgen boosting supplements but I do not appear to be getting the same acne problems as before.
Could be that my liver has enough vitamin A stored but I also theorise that one of the main reasons is the lower levels of estrogen which is a big contributor to acne.
@haidut posted in the raypeat forum a study that indicates that acne is likely a sign of estrogen not excess androgens.

@Verdad
Acne is a sign of your liver not being capable of getting rid of all the toxins that are in your body. So the toxins leave through your secondary detoxifying way which is your skin. So yeah having healthy amount of Vitamin A -> Increasing Liver Function will help you with that.
