Get Control Of Your Hormones And Acne!

What's The Connection Between Hormones And Acne?

Simply put it's an excess of androgens (the male hormone) and estrogen (the female hormone). An excess of these hormones triggers the next crucial piece of the acne puzzle... stimulation of our sebaceous glands. These glands are responsible for the production of sebum oil on the surface of our skin.

Sebum oil is that greasy shine that we acne prone know all too well. Sebum (oil) is one of the many causes of acne. For this reason, teens are mostly effected by acne, but acne does not discriminate. Everyone is affected by hormones and that makes everyone fair game...even babies.

Next, mixed with all that sebum (oil), dirt, make-up and sweat you're bound to have clogged pores. Before you know it, your skin is prime breeding ground for ACNE!

I know dealing with hormonal acne may seem a bit overwhelming or impossible to get under control, but it's possible.

This is where you may need to contact your Dermatologist for help. Hormonal acne needs to be tackled internally as well as externally.

After evaluating your skin and most likely testing your hormone levels with blood work, he or she will be able to determine if you would benefit from hormone therapy or treatment.

Not too sure about taking prescription medication or you're not able to see a Dermatologist?

Well, tackling your acne internally is not limited to medication. There are other very effective ways to help regulate and balance your hormones...through diet!
