How does your body know you’re stressed that it induces pimples? what’s the relation and how can it tell?
In: Biology
Stress is super broad as a term, but when stressed your body normally releases a hormone called “cortisol”. Cortisol does a lot to your body in the short term and long term.
In the long term, cortisol can cause sebaceous glands (the glands in your skin that make oil) to act up and produce more. This is what causes the pimples to pop up more.
