Hi, Customer (name blocked for privacy), an hormonal imbalance during menstruation, is not the only cause, for developing these breakouts. It is true, that hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle ,can induce these breakouts.
But this is a combination of hormonal causes and bacterial infection.
The hormonal imbalance can be ,controlled using birth control pills. But she must consult her gynecologist ,first. Although there are cases, in wich ,birth control pills make acne,even worse.
But it is also important ,that she receives treatment for her acne, itself. She must consult a dermatologist, who will prescribe her antibiotics , with a prescribed acne topical treatment
and other thing, it is impossible and unhealthy,to supress her cycle completely.
If you like my answer, click accept. A bonus will always be sincerely appreciated.
