Adult hormonal acne can start to affect every facet of your life. It can cause self-esteem issues, stress, and anxiety. Especially if you have tried the usual conventional treatments (like birth control pills and antibiotics) and alternative options (like an acne diet) — and still, your acne persists (or gets worse over time).
That’s why digging deeper is so important. Acne (and even hormonal acne) is usually a sign of a bigger problem lurking under the surface pointing towards issues like gut microbiome imbalances, thyroid disease, sex hormone issues, poor sleep, and blood sugar imbalances.
Though diet can play a role, acne diet approaches aren’t a quick fix, nor are they always successful. While many recommend eliminating dairy consumption, there’s a growing number of nutrition professionals pushing back against this.
So if you think that figuring out what’s going on with your acne is confusing, you’re not alone! I hope to help give you clarity on this with today’s guest who answers common questions relating to adult hormonal acne.
