A member asked:
Gained 8 pounds, i have back pain, and inner thigh pain, along with getting more bad acne. are these the symptoms of hormonal surges/imbalances?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hormonal imbalance: At your age, hormonal surges are unlikely. Try reducing your fat and carb intake and start regular exercises to lose those extra pounds. Fat raises cholesterol and carbs raise your weight so both are to be had in moderation. Reducing weight by 10% can help reduce back pain in almost 90% people who don't have a medical condition.
