Pros:

Clears up skin a little

Cons:

None

I've been on the Diane for 6 months and my acne has improved a bit but it hasn't cleared up yet and I am getting very frustrated, I'm going to see another Dermatologist for a second opinion as I am getting scared of all the bad reviews when you come off this pill..I am not willing to take this pill for the rest of my life...it has been banned in the US for a reason and I regret taking it. On the other hand, I haven't had any adverse symptoms as yet, no weight gain or loss, no cellulite, no headaches or moodswings...but these may appear after extended use of the pill. Bottom Line, only take it if you have no other choice and you have tried EVERYTHING ELSE. Make sure to seek second and even third opinions.

Pros:

works....

Cons:

NIGHTMARE...
major breakout after coming off it

acne is genetic in my family, so when i went to the family doctor to finally keep it under control, she gave me "quick-fix" diane 35. this pill should be called death 35. after one month of feeling heavy, hungry and can you say initial-break-out-from-hell as well as reading countless reviews on the danger this pill causes, i decided to come off it. acne therapy indeed! after only being on one month of this pill my face had twice the acne i had to begin with, and ratehr than being concentrated in one area like it was, it was everywhere.

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:

Skin completley clears up after 2 cycles. The only thing that has ever worked for me in over 15 years.

Cons:

Total lack of sex drive!!
I have not gained any wait or had an increase in my appetite, but the lack of sex drive is frusterating.

It is totally worth taking because it will clear your skin, especially if you have the kind of acne that causes cysts beneath the skin. Topical products will do nothing. The down side is, when i went off Diane-35, my acne returned within 2 months.

Pros:

Clearer skin, increase in breast size, regulated periods, birth control

Cons:

Depression, mood swings, loss of sex drive, cellulite, extreme weight gain

I'm 19 years old and I've been on Diane 35 for about a year now. I have to say that it really helped clear up my skin. I still get the occasional mild break out, but it isn't nearly as severe as before. You need to be patient though, because it took around 6 months for me to start noticing the changes in my skin. The first few months I used it, I would cry and get depressed for no reason and I couldn't figure out why. Also, I have gained about 15 lbs. since I have started using Diane. I have never had cellulite before, but now I'm starting to notice it on my butt and thighs. My advice would be to weight the pros and cons before you take Diane. I am personally going to get off of it, because the weight gain makes me really feel uncomfortable.

Pros:

Great Skin! No severe emotional side effects.

Cons:

Slight weight gain. Side effects started to show after 7 months on this pill

Not a bad pill at all. I had a lot of success! Periods remained long (5-6 days), and after about 7 months, I began to notice slight side effects. -Very emotional just before period (I guess this is normal, however I did not experience it during the first 6 months) - Changes in sex drive - Bloating - Dryness
