Endocrine disorder acne

Patient's question:

My best friend stole my boyfriend, and I'm very angry. He said it's because I'm not as pretty as my best friend. Her skin is white and clean, unlike me with a face full of pimples and very dark skin. Whenever I walk with him, his classmates laugh at him, and he feels very embarrassed. I'm deeply hurt by this.

Doctor's answer:

For acne caused by endocrine disorders, you can adjust your diet and lifestyle through the following methods:
1. Improve deep sleep quality and enhance your physical condition.
2. Stop taking drugs that disrupt the endocrine system (weight-loss pills, menstrual regulators, or medications containing bromine and iodine), and eat more jujubes while reducing the intake of iodine-rich foods like kelp and wakame.
3. For those with endocrine disorders, the week before their period is a high-risk period for acne. Avoid trying to cover it with makeup and opt for lightweight skincare products instead. Women with gynecological conditions can use folk remedies as supplementary treatment while seeking proper medication. In daily dietary habits, it’s important to avoid foods.
