Curious: I have questions about acne treatments and does chocolate make acne worse?
Hello everyone! So i have a slight acne issue, nothing horrible.. just zits here and there, and they make me feel really insecure. So i went to a skin doctor, and he put me on these pills and told me to stay on them for a few months, about 6 months Ive been on them for like 3 -4 so far and its been really good for my skin so far but i noticed that my hair and eyebrows got a bit thicker and my hair doesnt get oily anymore..or not as much atleast(im not complaining, im actually happy about this) do you think this is hormonal or is it because of the pills? Im confused because i think it has something to do with the pills but im not sure it has that effect, ALSO, whenever i eat chocolate my acne gets worse and when i stop it immediatly gets better, is chocolate bad for your skin?

These are definitely the kinds of questions to ask your skin doctor. He's the pro.
Without knowing anything about the medication you are on, it would make sense that it might effect the oils on your scalp, though it seems unlikely that it would change the thickness of your hair.
There is no proven connection between chocolate and acne. None. It's a total myth. You are probably just seeing a connection because you were told the myth at some point.
Overindulging in junk foods can contribute to acne, but that's not the same as having a bit of chocolate now and then. If you think chocolate is contributing to your skin troubles - it's more likely the milk and sugar fault than the chocolate's - and you could try eating just dark chocolate instead.
