Normal: Oily skin and hair are usually indicative of an abundance of androgenic hormones. These are the normal hormones that make your secondary sex characteristics male: hairiness, body odor, voice change, bone and muscle development and metabolism. The androgens work on the sebaceous glands of the skin and cause them to produce oil/sebum. More androgens= more oil. There may be a genetic predisposition.
