Why Use Natural Menopause Acne Treatment?
Our Menopause Expert Doctor at Almasi Skincare offers natural menopause acne treatment that does not use HRT (hormone replacement therapy) because the side effects of hormone replacement therapy include developing breast cancer, endometrial cancer, stroke, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary thrombosis, breast pain, vaginal bleeding, gall bladder disease, bloating, nausea, diarrhea, headache, mood changes, muscle cramps, skin rash, itchy skin, hives, and allergic reactions.
Consequently, our natural menopause acne treatment does not use HRT. It uses nutrition, supplements and lifestyle modifications.

What Causes Menopause Acne?
Menopause acne develops due to declining estrogen levels which result in a relative increase of androgens or male hormones. This relative increase of androgens results in increased sebum or oil production which clogs the pores and causes acne breakouts. Click on the link to learn about hormonal acne.
