Diane-35 : Oral Contraceptive

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.

I took this for a year and then went off because it had cleared my skin up totally. But after about 6 months the acne is coming back so im going back on it! it takes about 3 months to start working.

I have been on Dianne for a very short while. In just two months I have noticed although, I seam to be getting more pimples, my skin is healing much better and glowing. I think my skin is getting worse before it gets better as they say, cleansing itself. Deeper impurities or "Cystic pimples". So thats fine as this happens after a good regime of regular facials too. Old scares from drug use in earlier stages of my life are disapearing. My boobs are growing, yes tender, but who cares, I believe boobs tend to hurt when they are growing or when your on your period. so as long as they continue to grow I can take a little tenderness. I have polysistic ovarian syndrome so Dianne is very good for the treatment. Overall I think Im very happy. I have put on 5kgs. My friends and fam have always said I was to slim. I am 5ft 1 and weight 45kg. I am now 49kg. But if I only put 5kg on then who cares, again, bigger boobs.

I love it. I have been using it since I was 16 strictly for help with severe acne. I use it daily in addition to Vichy's Normaderm skincare line, and my skin looks model-perfect. I am 30 years old and last year as well as when I was 25 my Doc tried taking me off of it and putting me on Tricyclene and acne came right back. So I am sticking to my Diane 35 as long as I can get a perscription for it :)

i was prescribed this pill by my dermatologist after suffering from acne caused by the use of another medication. i have been on diane 35 for 2 and a half months and it has been hell although i remain positive so start seeing results after the 3 months mark. i havnt had any serious side effects only feeling emotional and moody at times but i think that is all to do with the fact that i am having trouble coping with the way i look. i read these reviews all the time and i think people need to give the medication time to work, i know how horrible it is to deal with having acne but just try to remain positive. its a waiting game and there is nothing more you can do. remember to do only what the doctor or dermatologist has told your to and not try too many things at once out of desperation. i am so desperate to finally see results, hopefully in the next couple of weeks i should!!!

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! =]

Helped my skin and reduced cramping significantly. Flow is a lot lighter now.

i'm 18 and i've only just started to take diane 35. I'm about one and a half months into it, and my skin seems to be worse than it was before. i'll remain optimistic that it will begin to take affect around 3/4 months or even 6 months, but that still doesnt help in the mean-time. I hate looking in the mirror and have deliberately avoided seeing my friends on various occasions because my skin has been so bad. i have recently lost a loved one, and so i find i can cry a lot easier than ever before, where as before i barely EVER shed a tear. i really really hope the diane works for me because nothing else has in the past. but right now, i feel ugly.

I loved this pill! I have PCOS and while on this pill I stopped bleeding, had clear skin, and felt like a woman! It totally balanced my hormones and I was able to ovulate and get pregnant a month or two after going off of the pill.

This is a miracle pill for acne. I had tried everything. I used to get acne on my back, which is 100% gone. I used to get cystic acne on my face 1 or 2 times a month, now I only get it once a year. The regular acne on my face is gone, except for an occasional small pimple every 2 months. I get compliments on my clear skin all the time. It took a few months before I noticed a change in the acne on my face. After 6 months, I would say at least 50% of the acne on my face was gone. After a year, it was completely gone, except for the occasional pimple. I have been on this pill for 4 years now, and every year up to the 3rd year my breasts increased a cup size. Because of that, I had stretch marks on my breasts, but they are now completely gone. I do not find that the pill helped with heavy bleeding or cramps, but my cycle is regular and normal with no breakthrough bleeding. I rated the pill based on its effectiveness with acne (AMAZING!!) not as a birth control pill
