A high-sugar diet can cause acne at any time, but it is worse when you eat it during your period. Because sugar increases insulin levels in the blood, stimulating androgen hormones to increase sebum secretion. Meanwhile, high testosterone causes the sebaceous glands to overwork. The skin is also more sensitive and prone to inflammation during these days.
Not to mention, they also affect hormones in the body, changing the ovulation process, affecting the menstrual period as well as the amount of blood lost during menstruation. Causing iron deficiency due to reaction with phosphate and making uterine contractions more severe along with many other uncomfortable physical and mental symptoms.
Instead, Dr. Zhang recommends that women rest more, maintain mental stability, sleep early and wake up early, and exercise gently. If you want to reduce acne, drink more water, supplement foods containing zinc, eat more legumes, supplement Omega-3 fatty acids, and eat more green vegetables and berries.
