Hormones are one of the biggest reasons acne does not stop after adolescence. Even as adults, hormonal fluctuations can increase oil production in the skin, leading to clogged pores and inflammation.
Common hormonal triggers include:
- Menstrual cycles
- Pregnancy
- PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)
- Stress hormones
- Birth control changes
- Irregular sleep patterns
Hormonal acne usually appears around:
- Chin
- Jawline
- Neck area
- Lower cheeks
These breakouts are often painful, deep, and recurring.
