Causes of Pimples and Acne
Pimples and acne can be caused by various factors, including hormonal imbalance, poor skincare routine, diet and lifestyle factors, and genetic predisposition.
Hormonal Imbalance
Hormonal changes during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, or hormonal disorders like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can lead to an increase in sebum production, which can clog the hair follicles and result in pimples and acne.
Poor Skincare Routine
Not cleansing the skin properly, using harsh skincare products, or constantly touching and picking at the skin can irritate the skin and contribute to the development of pimples and acne.
Diet and Lifestyle Factors
Consuming a diet high in processed foods, sugar, and dairy, and having a sedentary lifestyle with lack of exercise, sleep, and hydration can disrupt the hormonal balance and trigger pimples and acne.
Genetic Factors
Genetic predisposition can also play a role in the development of pimples and acne. If your parents or close family members have a history of acne, you may be more prone to developing pimples and acne.
