2007-May-1 - Girls, Puberty And Acne
Girls go through many physical and psychological changes during puberty.
During puberty girls experience an increased likelihood and severity of acne from hormonal changes in the body and increased oil secretions in the skin.
Puberty is often a difficult time and teenage acne only adds to the difficulty. During puberty girls usually experience increased irritability, mood swings, and feelings of low self esteem. Even girls who have been very sure of themselves may suffer from low self esteem when puberty sets in. These changes may be even more severe in the girl also suffers from acne.
The changes experienced during puberty can take a mental and physical toll on girls. The onset of acne certainly makes these changes even harder to deal with.
It is a good idea to visit with a dermatologist if the acne can not be controlled with over-the-counter medications. A dermatologist will understand the changes that are associated with acne and will be able to offer advice and treatment programs.
It's also important to be understanding and offer support to girls as they go through the difficult time of puberty.
