Pros:

I've been on this pill for about 3months and a bit so far and its been great,skin is really clear and i've been on treatment for over 5 years and i tried dianette and it works a charm

Cons:

th eonly bad thing about it is bloating,i havent gained any weight or lost though

It's brilliant, and it works differently for every person, i've noticed people gain weight or loose it by eating healthily and exercising. However,i do these things and have remained the same weight which is what i expected as i'm not trying to loose any. The only problem i've had with it is bloating which i get anyway so i'm used to it.

Pros:

my skin has never been better i have been on Dianette for around 10 years and have had no problems with it.

Cons:

I have recently moved and had to change GP my new doctor wants me to come off dianette because of the risk's and wants to try me on Yasmin because of the risks.

I have never suffered side affects with it so am willing to take the risk it was having acne that made me depressed and i am not going back to that!

Pros:

Cleared acne after 6mths

Cons:

Put on half stone
spotting mid cycle

I was on Dianette for 5 years and came off it. It had cleared my skin up totally for that 5 years and i felt with reaching 30yrs, I would no longer get acne. All red marks had even gone from my face.However,after 6mths, I started to break out again. I waited a further 12mths and finally I had to go back on Dianette again. I'm taking it for a week now and my boobs are really tender. But after the first time i have total faith in it to clear my skin.

Pros:

So far skin is less oily

Cons:

Loss of libido

I have been taking Dianette for over a week now. I haven't given it enough time to see if my acne goes away, but let me tell you, I don't even feel like having sex with my new husband! Before taking this pill, I was the one pulling him into the bedroom and now it's the other way around. He's begging me to come off Dianette because it's truly affecting our sex life tremendously. It's a hard decision though because I really want my acne to go. I've tried Yasmin and it did nothing for my acne, but at least Yasmin didn't affect my sex life. Girls, this pill will ruin your sex life. Dianette would be great for nuns or virgins, but for girls who have had sex before or are having sex, you need to think twice about taking this pill. It's amazing because I've only been on it for a little over a week!
