A member asked:
Had my period three times last month-could acne cysts be caused by the constant periods?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Acne can be activated with hormone changes. I would recommend you see your gyn to find out why you had 3 menses last month. I think you should at the least have an endocrine study.
