Hormones & Acne
Hormonal fluctuations are a major trigger for acne, particularly around the menstrual cycle. I address the root causes, including hormonal imbalances, gut health issues, and inflammation, to clear your skin from the inside out.
Hormonal acne is more than just a skin concern, it’s a sign of underlying imbalances. For many women, persistent breakouts around the jawline, chin, and cheeks are triggered by shifts in oestrogen, progesterone, and androgens. High levels of androgens, such as testosterone, increase oil production in the skin, while fluctuations in oestrogen and progesterone can increase inflammation and pore congestion.
Understanding the hormonal triggers behind your acne is the key to resolving it. Factors such as insulin resistance, poor detoxification, and chronic inflammation often exacerbate breakouts. Rather than masking symptoms with topical treatments, a root-cause approach addresses the internal drivers, balancing hormones, optimising liver detoxification, and supporting gut health to clear your skin from the inside out.
Imagine feeling confident in your skin, free from the frustration of constant breakouts. With targeted nutritional support, hormonal balancing, and lifestyle modifications, your skin can heal naturally and sustainably. Clear, vibrant skin is achievable when you treat the root causes rather than just the surface.
