A Dr. Mehmet Oz, MD , Cardiology (Cardiovascular Disease), answered. No one is sure what causes acne, but hormones appear to play a supporting role. Hormones can trigger acne when the sebaceous (oil-making) glands in the skin ramp up, producing too much sebum that mixes with debris and bacteria and can clog pores. Acne also tends to affect people with certain hormonal conditions, such as polycystic ovary syndrome. In addition, acne is more common during adolescence, pregnancy, and certain times in womenâs menstrual cycle, when hormones are more likely to fluctuate.
Acne-Cause. There are different types of acne. The most common acne is the type that develops during the teen years. Puberty causes hormone levels to rise, especially testosterone. These changing hormones cause skin glands to start making more oil (sebum). Oil releases from the pores to protect the skin and keep it moist. Acne begins when oil mixes with dead cells and clogs the skin's pores. Bacteria can grow in this mixture. And if this mixture leaks into nearby tissues, it causes swelling, redness, and pus. A common name for these raised bumps is pimples. Certain medicines, such as corticosteroids or lithium, can cause acne to develop.
