Imbalance in hormone can cause in various skin problems, including acne, dry skin, and changes in skin texture and color. These issues are often linked to fluctuations in hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and androgens, which affect sebum production and skin cell turnover.
Skin issues is a broad term that encompasses a wide range of conditions and concerns related to the skin.
In particular, for the skin, a hormonal imbalance can mean drastic changes, especially since it will be visible.
The acne that we commonly blame on ‘hormones’ generally occurs because of the deficit of certain hormones or the excess of other hormones. For instance, hormonal acne is attributed to low levels of a hormone called oestrogen and progesterone. However, an increased level of androgens (like testosterone) are also a trigger for hormonal acne breakouts.
While excess androgens can cause oily skin, the deficiency of oestrogen and its different forms can lead to the opposite problem. Dry, itchy skin and skin rashes are a clear sign of a decrease in thyroid activity, too, known as hypothyroidism.
Melasma
One skin condition that baffles many pregnant women is the phenomenon known as “the pregnancy mask”. Patches of dark pigmentation, mainly on the face, begin to appear when a woman is in the middle of her pregnancy or experiences severe hormonal imbalances.
Stress and Anxiety
The unfortunate fact is that emotional mood swings and stress is just another contributor to hormonal imbalance and may worsen existing skin conditions.
it is oestrogen and progesterone, which are the principal culprits for skin discolouration. Rather, it is mostly in excessive amounts that they cause more harm than good. They come in contact with melanocytes, which are cells responsible for producing melanin, and trigger them to make more of it than necessary.
Other causes for skin issues
You can do things to maintain a healthy life and try to control your hormonal issues, thus reducing the chances of hormonal skin issues.
