Women have a special period every month, which is the menstrual period. Before and after the physiological period, many people will be inexplicably irritable, uncomfortable, but also may appear skin oil, dull, acne and other situations, making people very annoyed. Why are some people prone to acne as soon as they reach their menstrual period? Let's analyze:
1. Why do I always have acne during my menstrual period?
To put it simply, it is about a week before coming to the big aunt to start acne, and after the big aunt is gone, it gradually gets better, and the next time you come to the big aunt, you start to have acne again, so the cycle starts...
01. Changes in hormones in the body
Hormones in the body have changed, progesterone fluctuations are larger, the blood supply and sebum secretion of the skin increase, resulting in oily skin and telangiectasia, the skin becomes very sensitive, the resistance is reduced, so there is a rash and hair follicle infection.
For most girls, there will be a lot of acne during this time, and the acne caused by this endocrine factor is more difficult to deal with than ordinary acne.
Androgens can also interfere with the secretion of estrogen, resulting in menstrual irregularities, amenorrhea, infertility and so on.
02. Clogged pores before menstruation
During special periods in girls, the sebaceous catheter opening of the hair follicle reaches a minimum state. At this time, we are more likely to cause clogged pores, and acne will follow
03. Mental and psychological factors
I don't know if everyone has such a feeling, when we come to the big aunt, our temper will be restless and easy to be nervous, and even lead to insomnia and other symptoms, which is also the reason for acne.
Second, how to avoid menstrual acne?
01. Do a good job of oil control and moisturizing
Especially in the week before the physiological period is coming, pay special attention to cleaning and maintenance, you can strengthen oil control for the T-shaped part of the oil, and the cheeks are mildly moisturized. During the menstrual period, you can apply a moisturizing mask to your face every night before going to bed for two consecutive days to keep your skin supple and moisturized and prevent dryness.

Zinc can hinder the growth of enzyme substances and can also control excessive secretion of oil from the skin. Therefore, zinc substances can be supplemented before menstruation to reduce enzyme substances in the body.
