30F Im wondering if anyone else shares my experience.

I suddenly was getting cystic acne and lumps all over my cheeks and neck which this medication completely cleared up..however. I started getting swollen breasts and for the first time in over a year my period was late, I was also a hormonal mess. With approval from my gyno I stopped the medication cold turkey because although I love being acne free it’s not worth my hormones being so messed up.

Three days later I started my period. Now over a week later I’m bloated to all hell which I’m assuming is water retention, I have no energy, and my mood is shot. Has anyone else had these withdrawal symptoms?

(30F) I was getting large lumps and cysts all along my cheeks and jaw line which is not normal for me and this medication completely reversed it. But now my period is late (two weeks and I’m not pregnant)for the first time in over a year, my breasts are constantly swollen, and I have really colorful in depth exhausting dreams every night (more often than not, trauma related). I’m considering coming off of it but I just PRAY the positive effects stick around. I thought I was a mess hormonally before but now…
