I’ve heard starvemaxing causes acne breakouts due to hormonal changes.

Can anyone confirm this?

Ye it's real. Severe caloric restriction spikes cortisol which increases sebum production, and your hormones get fcked when you're not eating enough so test and estrogen ratios change. Your skin is also the first thing your body stops prioritizing when it's in starvation mode so cell turnover slows and dead skin clogs pores. If you're gonna cut hard at least keep protein and fats high enough that your hormones don't tank, pure starvation is the worst way to do it for your skin.

Solution
Higher cortisol = more inflammation = more acne

But you can't predict it beforehand, everyone reacts differently so try it out.
