Hormones play an indirect but active part in acne. The part they play is related to side effects of the hormones, rather than a direct effect. Its interesting that the male hormones (androgens) have a greater effect on skin oil production (acne) than female hormones. This said, its important to say that male hormones and female hormones of the ovarian type are very similar in their structural configuration. One of the side effects of female hormones related closely to the ovarian monthly cycle in women is the stimulation of oil gland activity.
