Hormonal Acne
Most women have the same problem every month: breakouts occurring either before, during or after their period. Some men even experience hormonal acne (yes, men have "cycles"!). Normally, these breakouts flare up around the mouth and chin area, but for some, they will show up all over the face, even the back and chest.
It’s best not to let your hormonal breakouts go unattended to. Unlike teenage acne, hormonal acne usually doesn’t subside with age. In many cases, I’ve actually seen the case worsen. Aside from consulting with your dermatologist about contraceptive options, these are some products I recommend:
SkinMedica Acne Treatment Toner has a 2% salicylic acid and tea tree oil, both of which fight the acne bacteria.
PCA Clearskin pHaze 18 controls bacteria, reduces inflammation and fights against free radical damage and is great for all skin types.
As far as treatments, I’ve heard only good things about the blue and red light therapies. They work well for minimal to moderate acne. Check out the American Academy of Dermatology for more information.

hormonal acne can flare at any time, so it needs to be treated before it'll get many or worse.
I am into a treatment which solved my problem on acne, it doesn't have any side effects at all.
