11. 3 Reasons Why Your Hormonal Acne Isn’t Actually a Hormone Problem

When you hear "hormonal acne," you probably think it's all about your testosterone, estrogen, or progesterone levels.

But what if I told you that’s not the full story—and focusing only on your hormones could be the reason you’re still breaking out?

📝 So, I'm going to be breaking down:

  • Why balancing your hormones first is actually backwards
  • How cortisol burnout, blood sugar crashes, and sluggish detox pathways are quietly fueling your breakouts
  • What *shockingly* happened when I ran my own hormone test
  • Why starving your body with restrictive diets, intermittent fasting, and skipping breakfast is making your skin worse
  • The connection between blood sugar roller coasters and stubborn jawline breakouts
  • How poor liver detox (not just "bad skin") could be the missing piece you’ve been ignoring

💬 A Quote to Take Away: "Your skin is a mirror for what’s going on inside your body. Even if you normalize your stress, your skin doesn’t."
