I've been taking Spironolactone since December 2018 and every cycle since then has been between 13 and 18 days. Previously my cycles were crazy long (I'm talking months), so this is not normal for me. It's possible there's another cause as I have been taking a lot of supplements/have a high level of stress (I have PTSD), but am curious if others have experienced anything similar.

I'd love to hear if anyone else has encountered something like this.

Thanks!

Yes! The same thing happened to me. I was prescribed it for hormonal acne, and when I took it I had wayyy more periods than I had naturally. My dermatologist said this was normal.
