A change in your hormonal status is the likely underlying cause. You should consult your doctor to see if consultation with an endocrinologist is warranted. In the interim: Please consult this site for effective home care for acne. http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/acne/acne-vulgaris-home-treatment Wish you good health!
