Breakouts After Stopping Anti-Androgens?

Why do so many people report breakouts after stopping ant-androgens like yaz, yasmin, dianette, and spiro? Is it because the androgen receptors have become more sensitive? Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, I just have not been able to find a clear answer.

You mean when they never broke out before going on them? I think it's a really good question...I wish doctors cared to find the answer.

Yes, that, but also people like me who broke out before, but coming off of ant-androgens seems to take it to a whole new level. This is only my experience with spiro, yaz, and yasmin, but I have also seen people claim similar things with dianette.
