How to Say Good Bye to Post Pill Acne?
Hormonal contraceptives suppress your natural hormones, including testosterone. When you suddenly stop talking it, there is a rebound hyper secretion of sebum, your skins natural oil production because of androgen rebound.
It happens because your ovaries stopped talking to your pituitary gland while you were on the pill. Now, they are re-learning how to communicate with your brain again.
Secondly Birth control pills or any other form of contraception alters the gut flora in your intestines causing dysbiosis.
In my last post too, I talked about how dysbiosis causes immune system activation and inflammation.
This consistent inflammation sends the immune system into overdrive, so that a simple small pimple turns into an ugly, painful cyst.
