How hormones affect your skin
A serious endocrine imbalance in the body with the majority of women experiencing it when they’re ovulating or just before their period is the most common cause of hormonal acne. From a hormonal perspective, as it is the time when both estrogen and testosterone are at their peak this makes perfect sense. Estrogen and testosterone won’t be a problem in women whose endocrine systems work optimally, but the hormones accumulate over time and can’t be properly removed in women whose endocrine system is disrupted. While the extra testosterone can stimulate the sebaceous glands to produce more oil this may result in estrogen dominance and skin inflammation. As the blood is coming to the surface of the skin and may cause acne and redness this effect may be enhanced just before the period. As testosterone affects your follicles this may also make you more prone to hair loss or growth.
The skin works together with other important elimination organs such as the liver, large intestine and the lymphatic system and it is the largest elimination organ in the body . in order For your system to work properly everything you eat and use on your body must be thoroughly processed and eliminated. Acne can’t be treated with creams or pills – the problem can only be resolved if you change your diet and lifestyle. Here are some tips on how to eliminate hormonal acne:
Avoid eating dairy and gluten products
This will inflame your intestines and make matters worse.
Avoid eating soybeans
Make sure to always read the label before buying something because soybeans are present in many foods and supplements.
Avoid eating peanuts
People allergic to peanuts may have an adverse reaction such as swelling of the skin and rashes.
Avoid using canola, sunflower and vegetable oils on your food
These cooking oils contain omega-6 fatty acids instead of omega-3 fatty acids which cause inflammation in the skin.
Avoid black tea and caffeine
Both coffee and black tea may deprive your body of essential nutrients and affect the immune response of the skin.
