What Causes A Persistent Itchy Rash After Discontinuing Birth Control Pills?

I recently developed a very itchy rash that I can not figure out. My diet is the same. Everything is the same. The only difference is I stopped the birth control pill after 26 years. I have had this rash for 3 weeks. I can not stop itching. Could this be an effect of stopping the pill?

Hi, I don't think it is because of stopping the pill. You may be having some allergic reaction Consult a dermatologist. You may need some antihistaminics.
