A member asked:

Can thyroid problem cause acne?my progestron levels were high and tsh were low, imbalanced do these 2 have sth to do together?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: Progesterone has been shown to increase thyroid hormone levels and this lowers TSH. High levels of progesterone can cause cystic acne. Actually low thyroid levels are more apt to cause acne but high progesterone may override the low thyroid status. I hope I didn't confuse you.
