HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, you can stop taking this gradually within week or 10 days and this is not the big deal you can even stop this at once only without having any side effects but you have to be mentally prepared for that because what ever the symptoms you would be having that could be due menopause and not the medicine, hope this information helps.
