SOME programs are available Monthly https://community.adobe.com/t5/Get-Started/Being-charged-for-a-full-year-when-i-m-on-month-to-month/td-p/10248222 - links and pictures

 

If you did not specifically buy the Monthly plan (which costs more each month but which may be cancelled at the end of any subscription month) what you have is an annual plan with monthly payments... and you pay a fee to cancel after 2 weeks and before the end of your year

 

When you 'click to agree' to the subscription terms while buying a subscription, that means that you really do need to read BEFORE you enter your credit card number to buy a subscription...

Thanks, John. I did specifically bought the Monthly plan (which costs more each month but which may be cancelled at the end of any subscription month).  I will study the links that you provided.

It will not expire. You cannot "buy for a month". If you buy the month-by-month program you need to cancel, on the last day of some month ideally.
