10 Symptoms of Premenstrual Syndrome

5. Acne

During the premenstrual period, you may be dealing with acne. The culprit, in this case, are clogged pores in your facial area. Changes in your hormonal state make the skin excrete more natural oil (sebum). This, in turn, makes the skin greasier and prone to various forms of acne. Remember that touching the affected area will only make it worse. Instead of trying to pop them, try some natural remedies. Steaming with a hot towel or warm bath opens up the pores and allows the skin to breathe.
