What causes hormonal acne?
Acne is caused by clogged pores. Hormonal acne develops when hormonal changes increase the amount of oil your skin produces. This oil interacts with bacteria on the pores of your skin where hair grows (hair follicles) and results in acne.

Clogged pores are the result of:

Excess sebum (the oily substance created from the sebaceous glands in the middle layer of your skin).
Dead skin cells.
Bacteria.

Not using the correct type of cleanser.


Causes of hormonal acne that you can control
Stress.
Lack of sleep.
Using hair and skin care products that aren’t oil-free or free of ingredients that won’t clog pores (non-comedogenic or non-acnegenic). - use products that do not contain any oils.
