I. Introduction cne is the most common type of inflammatory dermatological disease widespread among any age from newborn to menopause [15]. It affects nearly 80% of people at some time between the ages of 11 and 30 years. It can persist for several years and result in disfigurement and permanent scarring, and it can have serious adverse effects on psychosocial development, resulting in emotional problems, withdrawal from society, and depression [28]. Acne is a multifactorial disease which is associated with systemic disorders and also potential skin marker of internal diseases or component of syndromes such as polycystic ovarian syndrome, Hyperandrogenism insulin resistance acanthosis nigricans syndrome (HAIR-AN syndrome) and SAHA syndrome [20]. Women of secondary reproductive age suffer more from acne than men. Psychological stress, diet, smoking, genetic predisposition and hormonal imbalance have been considered as factors that can trigger or worsen acne [15]. # II. Material and Method This research was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology; Kursk State Medical University on 4 th year and 5 th year female medical students aged 18 to 30. The number of students entrolled in the study was 126 after application of inclusion and exclusion criteria. The experiment consists of female students from Thailand, Nigeria, Brazil, Malaysia, India and Sri Lanka. They were given a questionnaire about the presence and absence of acne, their location, type of acne, health history, gynaecological history, genetic and life style considerations. All students were thoroughly informed about the study aims and through discussion about the procedure, associated benefits and risks and assigned written consent. The response rate was 95%. a) The inclusion criteria was history or / and presence of acne, age above 18 below 30 female, non pregnant and non lactating women. b) The exclusion criteria was absence of acne, age below and above 30, Pregnant and lactating woman # III. Results After the evaluation of questionnaire following statistical data was obtained. According to the results there were 7.1% Thai, 9.5% Brazilian, 27.7% Indian, 12.6% Nigerian, 26.9% Malaysian, and 15.8% SriLankan students totally. There were 7.1% Thai, 9.5% Brazilian, 17.4% Indian, 12.6% Nigerian 25.4% Malaysian, and 12.7% Sri Lankan students with acne. Whereas 10.3% Indian, 1.6%Malaysian, 3.2% Sri Lankan without acne. When analyzing the gynecological diseases in the participants with acne the below mentioned results were obtained (figure 5). Brazilian participants got highest variety of gynecological diseases, premenstrual syndrome (11.21%), hirsutism (3.7%), polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) (2.8%), vaginal candidiasis (2.8%), and endometriosis (0.9%) compared to other nationalities. Nigerian and Thai students got the second largest variety of gynecological diseases. Nigerian participants, got premenstrual syndrome (10.2%), hirsutism (5.6%), polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) (1.86%), and vaginal candidiasis (2.8%). Thai participants got premenstrual syndrome (7.4%), hirsutism (0.9%), polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) (0.9%), and endometriosis (0.9%). Whereas Indian, Malaysian, SriLankan students got only premenstrual syndrome, hirsutism and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Totally from the students with acne, 8.26% were diagnosed with PCOS, 65.11% were diagnosed with premenstrual syndrome, 1.8% diagnosis with endometriosis 5.6% with vaginal candidiasis and 22.2% diagnosed with hirsutism. # IV. Conclusion Acne is a common skin condition which mostly affects woman of secondary reproductive age. It is not only a dermatological problem but also affects woman in socially and psychosocial aspects. Acne can be the sign of many hormone related gynecological diseases. This study consisted of 126 female medical students which have understandable knowledge about dermatology and gynecology which could help us in increasing the success rate of answers in the study questionnaire. According to research analysis prevalence of acne was found in 84. 7% Being medical students they had to lead a stressful life with more unhealthy foods, lack of physical exercises due to busy schedule with their studies. Unhealthy lifestyle of students might leads to obesity, diabetes mellitus, hormonal imbalance and psychological stress issues which can lead to future severe form of gynecological disorders. As health care providers it is our main responsibility to pre diagnose and screen the hormonal imbalance, endocrine disorders and gynecological disorders. And take measures to alter healthy life style and stress among young female medical students. These measures could lead to healthy population of young female doctors. # Literature Review # Global 1![Figure 1: Pathogenesis of acne and risk factors (Khuraseva AB, Jayaweera JACS.

With reference to figure 4, 61.6% of students with acne got 4-6 days of menstruation duration in one cycle which is considered to be normal. 19.6% students got menorrhagia (7-8 days of menstruation duration in one menstruation cycle). 3.7% students are more prone to hyper menstrual syndrome since more than 8 days of menstruation duration in one cycle. 14.9% students show hypomenorrhea since they have 2-3 days of menstruation duration in one cycle.](image-3.png "Figure 2 :") 1Students with acneStudents without acneAverage age of menarche12-1313-14Regular menstruation cyclen=75 59.5%n=13 10.3%Irregular menstruation cyclen=32 25.3%n=6 4.7%After analyzing the menstruation history of theparticipants with acne (with reference table 1) 59.5%students with regular menstruation cycle, 25.3% withirregular menstruation.
