Hormone is the main cause for acne in 9 out of 10 times, so i wouldnt worry about it.

You 've got acne on your chest and back. But...... ......do you also breakout on your face as well? If you do, then I can show you how to easily tell if your acne is hormonal or not. Try analyzing where you develop acne pimples first. If you usually breakout on your chin area before any other part of the face, then your acne is hormonal. The androgen hormones are overstimulating your sebaceous glands. And these glands are producing too much sebum. Sebum then clogs the skin 's pores causing blackheads and white heads. These later convert into acne pimples. Checkout this website for more on acne:
