Hormones and Acne - What is the Link Between Hormones and Acne?

There is a well known and well documented link between hormones and acne.  This is why typically teenagers, menstruating women, as well as pregnant women all tend to have acne breakouts.  This is also also why women can treat their acne breakouts with birth control pills; they regulate their hormones and stop their breakouts.

This is great for women who can take birth control, but what about the rest of us?  What can we do about the connection between hormones and acne?  Well it's actually much less complicated than you think. 

First of all, you have to stop treating your acne symptoms.  If the link between hormones and acne is why we break out in the first place, then why are we putting on of these chemicals on our skin to help clear us up?  These treatments are only good at taking care of our acne symptoms...heck, sometimes they're not even good for that!

Instead of buying expensive and wasteful chemicals, you have to treat your hormones and eliminate your acne naturally.  By doing this, you actually address the root acne causes and your body will eliminate all of its acne causes all by itself. 

There is nothing difficult or obscure about eliminating the link between your hormones and acne.  It is mostly caused by our lifestyle.  For me, my diet had to change.  Things like dairy, white sugar and white carb's all had to go as they either bring in to many outside hormones, in the case of dairy, or they cause our bodies to produce to many hormones, such as with sugar. 

In either case, the link becomes quite clear.  Excess hormones from dairy or excess hormones from white sugar all cause our bodies to over produce sebum, or oil on our face.  This oil is what the bacteria on our face feeds on.  If we eliminate that link between our hormones and acne, the excess oil will stop being made and the bacteria on our faces will stop over producing.

By addressing this link between hormones and acne, you can quickly, naturally and cheaply solve all of your acne problems.  Stop trying to solve your acne problems by treating the symptoms.  Instead, use a holistic approach and eliminate that link between hormones and acne.
