Hello- Hormonal pathogenesis of acne is quite complex. Sebaceous glands can act as independent endocrine organs, responding to changes in androgens in a similar manner as the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. Long-term abusive masturbation results in serious acne through a variety of pathological means, such as an imbalance of androgen hormones that results in over production of sebum by the sebaceous glands, a lack of the inhibition of acne bacteria growth, and abnormal keratinization and comedone formation.
