Understanding Hormonal Acne
While it can affect people of any age, it is most common in teenagers, women in their 20s and 30s, and those going through menopause.
What Causes Hormonal Acne?
Hormonal acne can be triggered by:
- Hormonal Fluctuations: Menstrual cycles, pregnancy, birth control pills, and menopause can all affect hormone levels.
- Increased Androgens: These hormones can increase the size and activity of oil glands, leading to acne.
- Stress: Raises cortisol levels, which can trigger acne.
- Diet: High-glycemic foods and dairy may exacerbate hormonal acne.
How to Reduce Hormonal Acne
Skincare Routine:
- Use Gentle Cleansers: Opt for non-comedogenic, gentle cleansers to avoid irritating the skin.
- Apply Acne Treatments: Use products with ingredients like salicylic acid (naturally in willow bark), niacinamide, and bakuchiol oil (natural retinoid).
- Moisturize: Even oily skin needs hydration to prevent overproduction of oil.
- Sunscreen: Protect your skin from UV damage which can worsen acne scars.
