Pros:

I have been taking this pill for about a month, and my spots have cleared up slightly.

Cons:

However this pill has made me feel awfull- depressed, emotionally numb, always crying. I do not feel myself atall since taking this pill, and I am going to stop taking it immediately, as the research I have done has shown a link to depression.

I would much rather put up with spots than have to deal with what the feelings I have experienced due to Dianette. You only have to type the name in on google to see how many articles warning you about the pill come up. The fact that it is given out to young women without warning them of the risks is WRONG. I cant believe what I have read this morning, and I certainly advise anyone who is thinking about taking this pill to research the risks fully before starting it, as your doctor will not warn you of the risks properly.
