Can anyone tell me about neonatal acne? my understanding is that it is
caused by a drop in oestrogen levels in the baby.
The mother of a six-week old baby who comes to my support group has been
told by her GP that "it is caused by her 'breastfeeding hormones' and wont
go until she stops breastfeeding". She is naturally very distressed by this.
Other mums in the group then said they had been told similar things by their
doctors. I can find nothing written to support this so said I would ask you.
