Cyproterone and ethinyl estradiol are combined in certain medications primarily used for hormonal contraception and to treat androgen-dependent conditions such as acne, hirsutism, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women. Cyproterone acts as an anti-androgen, reducing the effects of male hormones, while ethinyl estradiol is an estrogen that helps regulate the menstrual cycle. Together, they help balance hormone levels and manage symptoms associated with excess androgens.
