A member asked:
Is it safe to discontinue errin and spironolactone all at once (after a year + of use)?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Oral contraceptives and spironolactone are frequently used together to treat hirsuitism and the combination is no more risky than either drug alone. Hope this helps.

No rebound: There's no rebound but you'll lose the benefits. Why were you taking those meds? Are you sure you want to sacrifice the benefits they gave you?
