Many oral contraceptives are also indicated to treat acne. So even if you stop it, you may notice that the contraceptive had a beneficial effect on your acne. As for the return of menstruation, it may take a few months before it comes back. It's different for each person, but it can take a while for the hormonal system and ovulation to return to normal. If you are worried about a possible pregnancy, I suggest you take a test to find out. Sometimes fertility can resume very quickly after stopping the contraceptives too! If the symptoms persist and you are not pregnant, I advise you to see a doctor for a check-up. Elise Grondin, pharmacist
