Hormones

Hormones are chemicals in the body that stimulate various reactions throughout the body. In the case of acne, hormones can cause the stimulation of the oil gland causing the over-secretion of oil into hair follicles. Acne most often occurs in teenagers going through puberty as hormones stimulate growth in all parts of the body.
