| Pros: | Breasts went up a cup size, great for an A cup!! Skin was less oily and break outs stopped. I was having large cysts on my chin, this stopped almost immediately. Less hair falling daily |
| Cons: | BAD pigmentation. Have been using this pill for 3 years, the pigmentation on my cheeks is now extending to the jaw line. More facial hair, some weight gain - about 2 to 3 kgs. |
| Bottom Line: | I would love to stay on this pill for the skin and breast benefits but the pigmentation is relentless so I am now off the pill and have an IUD. Hopefully the pigmentation will fade over time. |

| Pros: | no acne, less oily hair |
| Cons: | hungry all the time, weight gain, bigger breasts :-) |
| Bottom Line: | I was using this kind of contraception for one year, my skin completely cleaned, i couldnt believe it, i didnt need make up anymore, but after one year i went off it nd in 3 months my skin started to break up, in first weeks just little bit but then my forehead was full of these little pimples. I decided to take diane again ( after 4 months), cause i needed is for contracep. as well. After two months i didnt see any good results, moreover my skin broke up more than i could imagine. Now Im in the begining of the 3rd month nd i can see that my skin is improving, not so much, but my self-confidence is much better now. Of course im using the local medicament on my skin, but i think that diane is working again. omg im sooo happy..but i know when i get off the pill, the disaster will definitely start again :-( |

| Pros: | Vy good for clearing acne and smoothen skin. Quick result (1 month) |
| Cons: | A bit too expensive and slight headache & gain weight. |
| Bottom Line: | I found that Diane 35 is perfectly good for solving acne problem that gives fast result. Besides, it helps smoothen my skin and improve my skin texture. However, I was made to understand that this product has to be discontinued after the 4th month. Is this true ? What is the effect if we continue even after that ? And, if we take a break after the 4th month, when can it be started back ? Perhaps not for acne but a better skin texture. I was actually very happy that I have found a good product that I do not wish to stop taking it. |

| Pros: | Clearer skin all over, skin less oily |
| Cons: | Price is expensive, frequent headaches |
| Bottom Line: | I have been using diane 35 for 4 months and my skins is clearer than it's been in a long time. After 3 months my skin was still pretty bad so I was skeptical but after the 4th month my skin is clear but still has acne scars, my back and chest are perfectly clear but i get occasional pimples on my face but not as bad as before |

| Pros: | It cleared up the cysts |
| Cons: | No libido, headaches, weight gain, depression |
| Bottom Line: | I have been on & off this for 7 years now, it DOES make you gain weight. And quite rapidly. I am naturally aeound 43-44kg but whilst on it will fluctuate up 2-3kgs (on a small person is quite noticeable). The lack of sex drive is the one that has really affected my relationship. My boyfriend is wonderful & we try hard but most of the time it's just not happening. I will credit this drug though for clearing up the bout of cystitis I had. I have PCOS & the first symptom was after going 18years without even one pimple suddenly in 2 weeks I had dozens of cysts.... diane took a while but got rid of them, everytime I had gone off it they have come back. So side effects will actually not deter me, i will stay on it until a better alternative is developed |

| Pros: | clear glowing acne free skin, bigger boobs, birth control |
| Cons: | mood swings and price |
| Bottom Line: | It was recommended to me by my doctor since i was 16 for my irregular cycles. It really works to regulate my period plus they are way lighter and less painful now. After a couple of months my acne was gone and to avoid it coming back i usually take it on and off, at least stop it off for like 3mths every year. This is the best product ever. |
