Well, the Catholic Church itself did not really change its doctorines. The Church is incapable of changing doctrines, as they are revealed by God, and not something made up by people. Some of the people within the Catholic Church were abusing the doctorines and practices around the time of the reformation. For example, some people were buying and selling indulgences, which is condemmed by the Catholic Church. Many Protestant Reformers were unhappy about these types of abuses.
