I've been noticing that I get a pimple right in the middle of my cleavage line, and it seems to always show up right before my period. I'm really curious about what's causing it and if there's any way I can prevent it from happening. Any insights?

Pimples in the cleavage area before the menstrual cycle are often due to hormonal changes. To help prevent them, you can try using topical treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, such as Benzac AC gel or Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash. Keeping the area clean and dry can also help. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet, managing stress levels, and staying hydrated may help reduce the frequency of these breakouts.
