Could Dairy contribute to Acne?

Dairy is mucous-forming and difficult to digest (thus, why so many people are lactose intolerant). Sometimes, a side effect of that blow to the digestive system can arrive in the form of cystic acne or hard, painful bumps under the skin. "The hypothesis is that since the majority of milk in the U.S. comes from pregnant cows (and some cows are given growth hormones), the hormone levels in milk may play a role in excess sebum production, which promotes acne."
The ideas is that when the hormones in milk react with your own body's cocktail of testosterone and hormones, your sebum production skyrockets. "The process, along with increasing inflammation, worsens or flares acne pimples." So if you're already breaking out (say, due to stress or travel or your period), dairy could make it worse.
