Let's understand

Your skin can be an indicators of what's happening hormonally. If breakouts reliably appear in the week before your period, or acne persists into adulthood despite doing everything right, there can be a biological reason.

Hormonal skin changes are driven by fluctuating estrogen, progesterone, and androgens throughout your cycle. As estrogen drops in the luteal phase and progesterone rises then falls, oil production can increases, clogging pores and triggering breakouts. Elevated androgens, common in PCOS, are a particularly strong driver of cystic, jawline acne.

Hormonal acne is the most discussed concern, but not the only one. Perimenopausal and menopausal skin changes, dryness, thinning, and loss of elasticity, are directly tied to declining estrogen. Stopping hormonal contraception can also trigger a significant skin response that is rarely warned about.

Fertility issues

About

After multiple failed fertility treatments spanning over a decade, Katia witnessed firsthand what no one prepares women for: the aftermath. The failed cycles, the grief, the identity shifts, the quiet pressure from family and society. The journey ends, but the weight does not. She created the ETA Method (Enter, Traverse, Anchor) to fill that gap. Drawing on four dimensions (Body, Heart, Science, and Spirituality), she helps women rebuild after fertility treatments and major life transitions. She offers talking circles, practical workshops, and interactive conferences.
