Let\u2019s \u201cclear up\u201d any confusion on why cycle syncing and hormonal birth control can\u2019t coexist, and shine a light on how to harness your cyclical hormonal changes for your brightest, healthiest skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-does-it-mean-to-cycle-sync-your-skincare\"><span id=\"what-does-it-mean-to-cycle-sync-your-skincare\">What does it mean to cycle sync your skincare?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cycle syncing is the<a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/cycle-syncing-how-to-hack-the-natural-hormonal-shifts-of-your-cycle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> process <\/a>of understanding the hormonal changes and their observable biomarkers (like temperature rise, cervical mucus changes, and urinary hormone changes) throughout your menstrual cycle, and tailoring your daily habits according to the phase you are in. When it comes to cycle syncing your skincare specifically, the goal is to recognize how your skin\u2019s needs may change as your hormones fluctuate in each cycle phase, and to adjust your practices accordingly. This may help you to not just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/beauty-fashion\/skincare\/how-does-skin-change-on-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">avoid acne<\/a> but also improve your complexion, including taking advantage of when your skin is <a href=\"https:\/\/drdennisgross.com\/blogs\/skincare-blog\/how-to-take-care-of-your-skin-on-your-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">most likely to glow<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-can-t-women-on-hormonal-birth-control-cycle-sync-their-skincare-nbsp\"><span id=\"why-cant-women-on-hormonal-birth-control-cycle-sync-their-skincare\">Why can\u2019t women on hormonal birth control cycle sync their skincare?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recall that your cycle consists of two main phases: the first part of the cycle is your follicular phase, (just remember \u201cthe follicle comes first\u201d), starting with menstruation and continuing through ovulation. The second part of your cycle is the <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/naturalwomanhood-org-fam-basics-luteal-phase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">luteal phase<\/a>, beginning right after ovulation and continuing through the last day before your next period starts. Your estrogen and progesterone levels change in distinct, consistent ways during each of these phases. Some sources, like the one below, distinguish between four cycle phases: menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ovulation, not your period, is the main event of the whole cycle. You can only truly practice cycle syncing, then, when you are experiencing <em>ovulatory<\/em> cycles. But the whole point of <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/no-cycle-on-the-pill\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hormonal contraception<\/a> is to prevent ovulation. Women on hormonal birth control are not experiencing true cycles because they\u2019re not ovulating. You can\u2019t cycle sync if you don\u2019t have a cycle! <em>Cosmopolitan<\/em> missed this key fact in its writeup on cycle syncing skincare.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>You can\u2019t cycle sync if you don\u2019t have a cycle! <em>Cosmopolitan<\/em> missed this key fact in its writeup on cycle syncing skincare.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-cycle-sync-your-skincare-by-cycle-phase\"><span id=\"how-to-cycle-sync-your-skincare-by-cycle-phase\">How to cycle sync your skincare by cycle phase<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step to cycle syncing your skincare is to have regular cycles and utilize a Fertility Awareness Method (FAM) of <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/cycle-syncing-how-to-hack-the-natural-hormonal-shifts-of-your-cycle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cycle charting<\/a>. Even though some of the following tips could be helpful for women experiencing acne on the Pill, as demonstrated in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmopolitan.com\/uk\/beauty-hair\/a45584842\/cycle-syncing-skincare\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Cosmopolitan<\/em><\/a> article, cycle syncing aims to utilize the knowledge of our natural hormonal fluctuations to help us live our lives to the fullest. If you are not experiencing these natural hormonal fluctuations due to timed synthetic hormone release from hormonal contraception, you won\u2019t reap the full benefits of cycle syncing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-estrogen-and-progesterone-levels-impact-your-skin\"><span id=\"estrogen-and-progesterone-levels-impact-your-skin\">Estrogen and progesterone levels impact your skin<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Though we typically think of estrogen and progesterone as impacting the ovaries and uterus, their rise and fall can impact acne, psoriasis, atopic eczema, and irritant dermatitis, according to research [1]. But how? According to <a href=\"https:\/\/drdennisgross.com\/blogs\/skincare-blog\/how-to-take-care-of-your-skin-on-your-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Dennis Gross<\/a>, a dermatologist and cancer researcher whose skincare line is sold by Sephora and searched 33,000+ times\/month, estrogen is a proliferating hormone. This means it hydrates, plumps, and increases collagen production in the skin. Progesterone increases circulation and oil production in the skin.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hormonal deficiency during various parts of the cycle can increase acne, and in fact there\u2019s a connection between irregular cycles (which may be caused by hormonal problems) and skin problems [2]. Understanding where you are in your cycle and how healthy your hormones are can help you tailor your skincare to address your skin\u2019s needs and avoid breakouts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your cycle is broken into four main phases: menstruation, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal phases. Each phase is defined by specific hormone production and thus requires a unique skincare regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-menstruation\"><span id=\"menstruation\">Menstruation<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/beauty-fashion\/skincare\/how-does-skin-change-on-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Menstruation<\/a> is the first phase, marking the beginning of a new cycle. During this phase, the uterine lining sheds as a result of the fall of progesterone and estrogen at the end of the luteal phase. Think of this as a time of restoration and healing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Gross recommends using products such as hydrating masks, serums, and moisturizers to help moisturize and repair your skin after the more acne-prone luteal phase. Product ingredients to look for include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmopolitan.com\/uk\/beauty-hair\/a45584842\/cycle-syncing-skincare\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">niacinamide<\/a>, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and ceramides.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-follicular-phase-nbsp\"><span id=\"follicular-phase\">Follicular Phase&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The follicular phase is defined by the growth and maturation of a follicle as it prepares for ovulation. Estrogen is rapidly rising during this phase. This means your skin will benefit from an increase in collagen and hydration levels. Often, this is a <a href=\"https:\/\/drdennisgross.com\/blogs\/skincare-blog\/how-to-take-care-of-your-skin-on-your-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">healthier<\/a> phase for your skin. You may even feel like it is glowing. Despite the lack of skin blemishes in this phase, skincare is still important to avoid breakouts later.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recommended skincare regime, according to Dr. Gross, is focused on maintenance during this time. Look for products that contain ingredients like retinol, bakuchiol, ferulic acid, and rambutan. Additionally, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/beauty-fashion\/skincare\/how-does-skin-change-on-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Mindy Pelz<\/a>, chiropractor and author of <em>The Menopause Reset <\/em>and <em>Fast Like a Girl<\/em>, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C serum can enhance your skin\u2019s natural glow. These ingredients promote natural hydration and collagen production while controlling any excess oil from balancing progesterone levels.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ovulatory-phase\"><span id=\"ovulatory-phase\">Ovulatory phase<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The ovulatory phase is characterized by peak estrogen levels and ovulation, the act of the mature follicle releasing the egg into the fallopian tubes. These peak levels of estrogen continue to enhance the glowing effect from the follicular phase. <a href=\"https:\/\/drdennisgross.com\/blogs\/skincare-blog\/how-to-take-care-of-your-skin-on-your-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Testosterone<\/a> is also high during this phase which causes an initial increase in oil production. Once ovulation occurs, progesterone levels begin to rise as estrogen decreases, further enhancing the skin&#8217;s oil production.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Skincare in the ovulatory phase should be focused on prevention as you head into the luteal phase, the most acne-prone phase of your cycle. According to Dr. Gross, you should focus on oil-free moisturizing products and exfoliants during this time. A lightweight lotion can also be used for hydrating the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-luteal-phase\"><span id=\"luteal-phase\">Luteal phase<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The luteal phase is defined by the life of the corpus luteum, formed by the follicle after ovulation. During this phase, progesterone is the dominant hormone produced by the corpus luteum. Oil production increases with the rise of progesterone. As <em>Cosmo <\/em>noted, cortisol also rises in the luteal phase. This can intensify blemishes, sensitivity, and clogged pores on the skin.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the luteal phase, more than any other time, breakouts tend to be more common. This is when consistency in your daily skincare routine is most important. Your focus should be on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/beauty-fashion\/skincare\/how-does-skin-change-on-period\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eliminating<\/a> excess oils and unclogging your pores. Dr. Gross recommends using non-comedogenic products with ingredients like colloidal sulfur, kaolin clay, and bentonite clay. Some exfoliation, spot treatment, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realsimple.com\/beauty-fashion\/skincare\/what-is-niacinamide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Niacinamide<\/a>, a form of Vitamin B, may be effective for your luteal phase face care.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-s-the-connection-between-hormonal-birth-control-and-acne\"><span id=\"whats-the-connection-between-hormonal-birth-control-and-acne\">What\u2019s the connection between hormonal birth control and acne?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many teenage girls are prescribed birth control to help manage their acne. This can be an effective solution because <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/why-birth-control-isnt-the-best-solution-for-teen-acne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">synthetic estrogen<\/a> lowers androgen levels and thus decreases acne. Of course, less acne may not be a fair trade for increased risk of <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/birth-control-cause-liver-tumor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">benign liver tumors<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/topic\/depression\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mental health problems<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/topic\/cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> breast cancer<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/birth-control-cervical-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cervical cancer,<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/topic\/blood-clots\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blood clots<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/birth-control-and-stroke#stroke-risk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> stroke<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/drbrighten.com\/birth-control-pills-cause-gallbladder-problems\/#:~:text=Birth%20control%20pills%20have%20been,to%20pain%2C%20nausea%20and%20inflammation.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> gallbladder problems<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/topic\/autoimmune\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">autoimmune issues<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, not all forms of hormonal birth control have this anti-androgenic effect. For instance, progestin-only birth control does<em> not<\/em> contain synthetic estrogen. This can result in an <em>increase<\/em> in acne problems. This was the experience of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmopolitan.com\/uk\/beauty-hair\/a45584842\/cycle-syncing-skincare\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Charlotte Bitmead<\/a>, the author of the recent <em>Cosmopolitan <\/em>article, which inspired her to explore cycle syncing her skincare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-did-my-acne-return-after-coming-off-the-pill-nbsp\"><span id=\"why-did-my-acne-return-after-coming-off-the-pill\">Why did my acne return after coming off the Pill?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many women experience acne coming off the Pill. This could be a <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/post-pill-acne-after-getting-off-birth-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">temporary<\/a> reaction from a rise in androgens as your hormones work to return to normal, or it could be because you no longer have the hormonal withdrawal caused by the synthetic hormones to mask your acne symptoms. It is also important to note that birth control, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/drbrighten.com\/acne-after-stopping-birth-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Jolene Brighten<\/a> (author of <em>Beyond the Pill<\/em> and <em>Is This Normal?<\/em>), depletes the body of essential nutrients like zinc, so post-Pill acne could be a result of <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/is-oral-contraceptive-pill-safe-depletes-nutrients-depression-bad-for-you-092018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nutrient deficiency<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-can-i-manage-my-acne-without-the-pill\"><span id=\"how-can-i-manage-my-acne-without-the-pill\">How can I manage my acne <em>without<\/em> the Pill?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you used birth control to manage your acne in the past but are working to manage it without the Pill, there are effective steps you can take to heal your skin. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/post-pill-acne-after-getting-off-birth-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Brighten<\/a>, starting with appropriate supplementation, a nutrient-rich diet, stress management, and natural beauty products can effectively defend your skin against blemishes. Once you have addressed these four daily habits, charting your cycle and practicing cycle syncing can help you get to the root causes of your breakouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The<em> <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/28-app-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>28 <\/em>app<\/a> could be another great tool to help you with cycle syncing your skincare.
