Patient's question:
A few days ago, I went to the hospital for a health check-up and found that I have a gynecological inflammation. I am currently undergoing treatment, but yesterday I noticed that I have developed acne on my body. I have never had acne before, so I wanted to ask if gynecological inflammation can cause acne to appear on the body?Doctor's answer:
Acne on the face has nothing to do with gynecological inflammation. In fact, the main reason for acne is endocrine disorders. When endocrine disorders lead to a continuous increase in male hormones, it can cause recurring enlargement of pores, relatively rough skin, and thus lead to the excretion of more oil, which creates the prerequisite for the proliferation of acne-causing bacteria. It is recommended to consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for regulation.
