Skin Conditions


Why do so many teenagers have very bad acne on their skin? Have you noticed that some women also develop acne around forty to fifty years old? An imbalance of hormones can contribute to the development of acne. When estrogen and testosterone levels are high, the metabolites of these two hormones need to be discharged as soon as possible after they exert their functions. If a person does not drink enough water or does not eat sufficient vegetables, the metabolites of the hormones can circulate in their blood for a longer time. The metabolites of the hormones will stimulate their oil gland to produce more oil and cause an infection of the pores. When hormones levels are high, people also tend to sweat more. The liver can deactivate the estrogen and testosterone so the metabolites of hormones can be discharged through the kidney. If teenagers drink alcohol or have an unhealthy diet, their liver and kidney function can be compromised even though the blood test shows a normal liver and kidney function. If teenagers ingest too many simple sugars, they will have higher levels of insulin and fat tissue. Fat tissue stores a lot of estrogens with can cause not only acne but may also cancer. Also, young women can develop PCOS, which also stimulates the face to grow more acne. The small cysts in the ovaries can release testosterone to make the face have more acne.

Acupuncture helps strengthen your liver and kidney function, so the liver can metabolize the hormones more efficient and the kidney can discharge the hormone metabolism faster. But teenagers and women also need to drink enough water, avoid spicy food and alcohol to restore their hormone balance. If acupuncture once a week does not clear up the acne completely, you can try to use some Chinese herbs to strengthen your digestion and kidney function. Acne sufferers can also use spot treatments alongside these methods to see an even more dramatic change in their skin; you can find help from for spot solutions.
