Hello Siti,
Hormonal acne usually affects the lower 1/3 of the face (jawline/ chin) and it can be related to menses.
From what you have described (increased facial hair and irregular periods), you may want to see a gynaecologist to rule out a condition known as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) first and it can have other health implications.
Hormonal acne can be treated with the usual medications and antiandrogens
Topicals:
- Retinoids
- Benzoyl Peroxide
- Glycolic acid
- Salicylic acid
Orals:
- **Oral Contraceptive Pills
** - Spironolactone
- Antibiotics
- Isotretinoin
Speak to a trusted doctor to find out more.
Regards,
Dr Jiwei Wu
