Why Pimples: Depends upon you age; whether you are male or female. For all my acne patients i recommend you to stop nuts and peanut butter. Stop chocolate; cut down on dairy products. Wash with neutrogena acne wash and apply a bpo (benzoyl peroxide) cream or lotion -- something like clearasil -- on the affected areas at night. If it persists, see a dermatologist who may prescribe an oral antibiotic for you.

Testosterone: Agree with Dr. L about what you need to do. However, almost all acne are driven by testosterone/androgen, in both men and women.
