Natural ingredients are usually gentler on the skin than chemical products. Hence many people prefer them. But there are some skincare products that can be harmful to women dealing with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome). Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) occurs in around 5 to 10 percent of women in the world and about 70 percent of them have facial acne in one way or the other.
Hormonal imbalances can trigger acne by increasing oil production, weakening skin barrier and making skin more sensitive. This sensitivity of the hormones is the reason why some natural ingredients may worsen acne rather than treating it.
