What effect do hormones have on the skin?
Hormones are essentially powerful chemical messengers that are involved in controlling and regulating the various complex systems in our body. The main hormones we are concerned with when talking about hormonal acne are the sex hormones (oestrogen, testosterone and progesterone).
Oestrogen improves skin elasticity, hydration and thickness and plays a key role in skin health. Progesterone also improves skin health and works alongside oestrogen to keep the skin soft and supple. Testosterone stimulates the oil producing glands and also changes the skin cells lining the hair follicles, making them sticky.
