Women do you get hormonal acne in this spot? or reoccurring acne here in general?

I have suffered from acne since I was 12, so this isn't something that just popped up. Over the last year I seem to get breaks outs in the same spot. I am wondering if anyone gets hormonal breakouts in this area, mine tends to be in the same spot on both sides as well as on my chin. I do not get cysts, they are mainly small whiteheads and closed comedones that don't tend to come to a head. Cant figure out for the life of me if this is hormonal, clogged pores or Perioral dermatitis. I do have dehydrated skin right now so all I am using is vanicream gentle cleanser, drunk elephant b-hydra, Hada Labo skin plumping gel and some squalane oil.

I am going to get blood work done in about 3 weeks to test my hormonal levels and thyroid levels so I am trying to hold off on a dermatology appointment until I get those results back.
