shaunna, Canada Oct 2nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Clear beautiful skin, regualr periods Cons: PRICE Bottom Line: I started using diane 35 when I was 18 and continued using it until I was 22. I decided to go off it since my face had cleared up, but a couple months later my acne came back in FULL FORCE! (even worse then before I started). I have been off diane for a year now and my acne is getting better since using cetaphil cleanser, I dont have sever acne just the big ones that hurt on my forehead and alot on my chin. I recently went to the doctor to get a perscription for diane because I just loved my skin when I was on it, and had so much more self confidence when I had clear skin. Hopefully it works just as good the second time around. Just waiting to start it on the first day of my period! I totally recommend diane to anyone that suffers from acne. I LOVED it !

Blank, Toronto, Ontario Sep 29th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Clear skin, thicker hair Cons: Pumping body full of synthetic hormones on a daily basis. Stopping this product resulted in skin becoming oily (much more than before) and hair falling out in clumps while hormones start natural production and the body attempts to balance itself. Bottom Line: Learn from my mistake and do not use this product for reasons of vanity. It will work while you are on it but the longer term effects of using synthetic hormones are not worth it. It affects the mood, the complexion, the hair, the list goes on. The anxiety I have felt going off this product is not worth it. Anxiety from hormone fluctuations, as well as having to watch my hair fall out in strands for 4 months now, having it noticeably thinner, seeing my skin become oily and pimply. It is not worth it! I have done a lot of reading on hormonal balance since stopping this product and have started seeing a naturopathic doctor to assist in the transition.

reb, toronto Sep 27th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: clears acne, decrease of growth of facial hair Cons: WEIGHT gain!!!!!!!!!! Bottom Line: I have been on this medication for 4 months now. I have seen positive results for what i have been taking it for, facial hair. My acne cleared too. However, periods definitely don't get easier, i have massive headaches everyday, major thirst and most importanly weight gain!!! I have never been so fat in my life! i have gained over 13 pounds! I would rather recommend YAZ- which my sister is currenly taking and will be most likely switching too. Recommended: No Usage: reb has used this item for a few months.

Michelle, Canada Sep 25th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Less acne, bigger breasts, (birth control? I'm only 15 so maybe they just said it doesn't work because they don't want me having sex.. lol ) oh and definetly less oily hair and skin! Regular period too which is also awesome. =] Cons: Mood swings, depression, heaviest periods of my life! Bottom Line: I have been using Diane 35 for about two months now and I am definetly seeing a change in my skin! And the whole breast thing, my mom just commented on it and she said it did look like i have bigger boobs! score! haha. My acne isn't completely gone yet but its getting there so I think I'll hold out for a while. Everyone should know that it takes time for this to work.. it's not like you're going to use it once and see the results tomorrow! Your body has to adjust to the change in your system. P.S You should also know that some people have found that they were bleeding for the first few months. I am included in this stupid category! I bled for about a month straight.. Pretty brutal. But it's alright now. Hope this helped! =] Recommended: Yes Usage: Michelle has used this item for about a month. Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful?

Penny, Netherlands Sep 24th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: It did clear my face Cons: This pill has been destroying my life for the past year. Weight gain, depression, mood swings, awful migraines, decreased sex drive and HUNGER ALL THE TIME! Bottom Line: This pill is the devil. If you are willing to destroy the natural balances of your body with this alien poison, do so, but I assure you, this pill has horrible effects. I have been one week off it and I feel renovated, no hunger, I'm losing weight, my mood seems better and thank god no more killer migraines. Until now, I haven't had any acne breakout, but we will see, it's been a short while to say if the acne will be back, I hope not, but if it comes, I swear to the Goddess that I will never use such a medicament again. I just think this makes out of you a freak of nature. Recommended: No Usage: Penny has used this item for about a year. Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful?

Sash, Kgn, Jamaica Sep 21st, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Shorter, less painful periods Cons: Mood swings, depression, weight gain, loss of libido Bottom Line: My family doc recommended Diane-35 after having tried everything over the counter and other prescribed drugs. I took it for 4 mths then stopped. It worked then but the acne came back soon after I stopped. When I started visiting my present dermatologist, she insisted that it would work and prescribed it. I have been taking it now for 5 mths and if anything, the acne is worse. Huge painful pimples and even after 2 facial peels, my skin still looks awful. In addition, my legs feel cramped and I have put on weight. As a matter of fact, I am on a combination of diane-35 and doxycycline and some other med I am supposed to take for the first 12 days of the pill. uite frankly, results vary. It works for some, it doesn't for others. I am giving it another month and if things don't change, I am getting off. It would be nice to have a little desire for sex. That too has lessened significantly. Recommended: Yes Usage: Sash has used this item for a few months. Price Paid: 1,250.00 Acne severity: moderately severe Was this comment helpful?

Cass, Canada Sep 20th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Got rid of all of my acne while I was taking it. Cons: Very heavy and extremely painful period (for someone who never had cramps before), weight gain, depression, complete loss of sex drive, pain during sex Bottom Line: Although it got rid of my acne, I would NEVER recommend Diane 35 to anyone. In fact, I have made a point to pass the world along to my friends that it is not a good choice. I'd like to keep the 2 years I was on the pill a distant memory...it was a dark time. I can't remember a day when i didn't cry for no good reason. Before Diane 35, I never had cramps. On Diane 35, they were excrutiating (one month I thought I was having a miscarriage). After a complete loss of sex drive, I decided to stop taking it. It took a good year or so before I felt back to normal. Bottom line, don't risk it.

Reji, Philippines Sep 19th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: very clear skin larger breasts birth control (of course) Cons: lower sex drive mood swings higher chance (than normal) of getting pregnant when taken inconsistently Bottom Line: I started taking Diane 35 to help prevent my acne, even before having a boyfriend. Then I got pergnant immediately when I decided to stop taking it because my was acne already healed. I also have lower libido (sex drive) ever since I took Diane. Me and my husband only have sex 3 times at most per month, and I only get aroused once out of those 3. Take Diane 35 if your only goal is to get rid of your pimples, but if you're in a relationship, try other birth control ways instead, like condom or IUD. The sex drive is needed by our partners, we have to accept that fact. Recommended: Yes Price Paid: 10.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)
