“What is the impact of hormonal imbalances in the body?”
I am 34 years old and lately, I have been having a problem with acne. I haven't had this issue since I was a teenager and I have been taking good care of my skin. I'm wondering, could this be a sign of a hormonal imbalance? If it is, what impact could this have on my body?

Anytime you have had problems since it certainly could be related to hormonal imbalance in women especially it could be related to a condition called PCOS. You should consider speaking about this to your primary care physician the other possibilities including hypothyroidism may also contribute to cystic acne.
It could be the result of hormonal changes, usually happens during puberty. Acne can form in adults, usually with oily skin, pores get clogged and bacteria tend to grow and cause inflammation. It's recommended that skin should be kept clean, so wash your face with soap.
