A member asked:

I read a blog saying that chin acne was the cause of hormonal imbalance if so how would i go about being tested for an imbalance ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The other way around: Chin acne does not cause a hormonal imbalance, but a hormonal imbalance may cause chin acne or other locations of acne. One's primary care doctor can evaluate to see if blood tests are needed, to check levels of certain hormones such as cortisol, DHEA, testosterone, LH, FSH, etc... The patient should be ready to give a detailed menstrual history and describe her cycles and any symptoms.
