Hello, hormonal imbalances—particularly elevated androgen levels—are often associated with acne development on the face. In daily life, it is advisable to avoid spicy and irritating foods, as well as excessively sweet or greasy foods. Medications such as oral vitamin B6 may help regulate lipid metabolism. For individuals with markedly elevated androgen levels, spironolactone may also be considered. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a pleasant and healthy life!
