Hormones do play a role in the development of acne, especially in women.
Women tend to have a harder time with their hormones because, opposite to men, women’s hormones don’t stay stable day to day, month to month.
If you are someone who tends to breakout around that time of the month, it is because of all the hormonal shifts that are happening which can lead to breakouts. In most cases is not because your hormones are malfunctioning, they are just doing what they are supposed to be doing.
If you are acne prone then aim to balance blood sugar, get rid of food sensitivities, balance the gut microbiome, consume essential fatty acid, and manage your stress.
By doing this you will be able to reduce those “hormonal” breakouts.
