Androcur 10mg (which contains cyproteronacetate) is being discontinued by Bayer because it isn’t economical for them to produce anymore. I hate it. It’s the anti androgen that’s pretty much the standard for feminizing hormone therapy here in Germany and I believe even in Europe.

Edit: here is the email in German that they sent me after I asked them through their contact form:

    I’m not doing DIY and I have to get my prescription from my endo. She suggested to switch to spiro. I suggested to her to prescribe 50 mg to quarter them but I don’t have an answer yet.

          Would bicalutamide be an option? It’s a very effective anti-androgen with minimal risk and potentially no side effects.

          (Unrelated, but bica ultimately didn’t work for me, I suspect because it didn’t act as much on the Central Nervous System, so my biochemical dysphoria wasn’t helped by it and that was the main reason I wanted an anti-androgen. I switched to monotherapy and that has been better.)
