Is adult acne an indication of sensitivity to testosterone?

[labellavita1985]

Hey guys, just wondering if you guys think that adult acne is an indication of sensitivity to testosterone?

I just would ask does it matter? If your not losing hair why does it matter really? Acne could be one sign of high androgens like T or DHT but its probably not a for sure thing

I am losing hair, that's why I'm on this website.

29 yo female with elevated total testosterone (slight elevation.) I have also had adult acne.

This is why I was asking.

I haven't been breaking out at all since starting dutasteride...honestly my skin looks great for the first time in a very long time

I don't know if this exactly answers your question, but adult acne has been associated with PCOS.
