Pros:

i am on my 3rd box of Diane-35 and i have only seen a reduction in oilyness of my skin.

Cons:

reduced sex drive, depressed, nausea
constant hunger and weight gain
dryness, moody

I am on my third month of using Diane-35, and the only pro i experienced is a reduction in oilyness, the cons are numerous. I am taking Diane-35 for polycistic ovaries which is quite common in young women today ( as a little note stay away from chicken I believe the Hoemenes in the feed are causing these effects). Anyways I have really lost hope in my severe acne, hair loss and hairyness in body (and all the other symptoms of PCOS) so i am really hoping that this product works. I will give it a few months again to see what happens.

Pros:

it sort of brought down the size of zits.
no side effects

Cons:

Been on it almost 3 months, and not seeing drastic changes. seems to be slowly improving, but im not convinced that it has done much

Improvments seem gradual, or maybe it just wont work for me. hopefully just need to give it more time. Have heard numerous times this product has helped though so staying positive..

Pros:

clears up acne a bit

Cons:

worse cramps than before, and causes blood clots

After using Diane 35 for almost 6 months, I saw a little difference in my acne, but not enough for me to keep using it. For me, the cons outweighed the pros of me staying on it to see what would happen in the long run. I was reading that 100% of subjects that took Diane had their acne gone after 18 months, but I didn't want to wait that long, nor deal with the consequences of birth control as a method of acne treatment. Diane 35 is really dangerous apparently (causes blood clots and such), and being off of it for about 2 weeks now I'm feeling bloated and getting stomach aches almost every day, but it should go away.

Pros:

Clears up a bit, not bad

Cons:

BREAST ENLARGEMENT. Oh my god, I had perfect B's and now have busting out C's. If you want a bigger chest, mood swings, weight gain, this is the pill for you.

It does indeed help, but just has severe side effects.

Pros:

Improved acne, not pregnant, can skip periods

Cons:

Slight weight gain, possible other side effects (not sure if they are due to pill or not), didn't clear all acne

This pill worked pretty well for me though not all my acne is gone it's definitely a lot better. and it's good how it can be used as a birth control too. I didn't get any side effects at first but some appear to be arriving now after a few months, however they may not be due to the pill.

Pros:

Clear skin (initial breakout), Bigger boobs, didnt effect sex drive

Cons:

ALWAYS exhausted! Can't get enough sleep (not good). Bigger appetite. A bit of chest pain. Sore breasts. Irritable, bad mood swings.

I have yet to find the "perfect" birth control for me. I dont like the fact that this BCP makes me so tired (like, really tired) and moody. I am going to finish my packs, because I paid for them, and because I noticed clearer skin and I am going on vacation + a wedding and dont want to risk having my acne reappear. I pretty much want a birth control thats excellent for skin with minor side effects... I was thinking of trying Yasmin. Any suggesions?
