Determining whether acne is fungal or hormonal can be challenging without a proper diagnosis by a dermatologist.
Fungal acne, also known as Malassezia folliculitis, is caused by an overgrowth of yeast on the skin, while hormonal acne is typically linked to changes in hormone levels.
It’s best to consult with a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
