Pros:

None

Cons:

Too many side effects

I have taken this poison for a year and if anything it made my complexion worse, too much weight gain and bad headaches.
September 27, 2009

Pros:

clears acne, decrease of growth of facial hair

Cons:

WEIGHT gain!!!!!!!!!!

I have been on this medication for 4 months now. I have seen positive results for what i have been taking it for, facial hair. My acne cleared too. However, periods definitely don't get easier, i have massive headaches everyday, major thirst and most importanly weight gain!!! I have never been so fat in my life! i have gained over 13 pounds! I would rather recommend YAZ- which my sister is currenly taking and will be most likely switching too.

Pros:

It did clear my face

Cons:

This pill has been destroying my life for the past year. Weight gain, depression, mood swings, awful migraines, decreased sex drive and HUNGER ALL THE TIME!

This pill is the devil. If you are willing to destroy the natural balances of your body with this alien poison, do so, but I assure you, this pill has horrible effects. I have been one week off it and I feel renovated, no hunger, I'm losing weight, my mood seems better and thank god no more killer migraines. Until now, I haven't had any acne breakout, but we will see, it's been a short while to say if the acne will be back, I hope not, but if it comes, I swear to the Goddess that I will never use such a medicament again. I just think this makes out of you a freak of nature.

Pros:

None yet...

Cons:

Headaches, Cold and Cough, Unusual looking acne that cannot be squeezed. I know it's because of the Diane, because my acne has never looked like this before. I just finished my first pack, so I'm just waiting for this "miracle pill" to work...

I'm yet to see the benefits that everybody has been talking about, but i just finished my first pack, hopefully it'll get better with subsequent uses. It is kinda expensive though. I have faith in this pill, so I really, really hope it works.......can't wait. If it does clear my skin, I can live with the side effects- I'll be taking it for a while. We'll see...

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:

none

Cons:

This has actually increased my acne dramatically!
Also weight gain.

DOES NOT WORK.
August 15, 2009

Pros:

Clear skin

Cons:

severe weight gain, back pain, headaches, cellulite, stretch marks on thighs, immense increase in appetite, yeast infection, depression, anxiety, gas, bloating

I never thought I'd write an online review. But after reading all these others I think i'd like to share my experience. I have been on diane for 7 months and re side effects are getting seriously intolerable. I have gained 9kgs, used to be so tiny and now I have cellulite on my thighs!!! None of my clothes fit me anymore and as soon as I eat something in the morning my stomach bloats and stays that way all day, it's so uncomfortable! It cleared my skin but these side effects definitly outweigh clearer skin. Everyday has become a battle! It's too strong a pill, too unnatural for your body. I can't wait to feel normal again once I'm fake hormone free!!

Pros:

Clearer skin and birth control

Cons:

I am a hormonal psychotic mess... Weight gain, bloating, cysts instead of acne

Only take this pill if you can handle being a crazy lady! 2 months in my skin looked fabulous.... then.... I started getting cysts in place of pimples and my mood is all over the place! I've turned into a horrible, short tempered, crying person... I'm only on this pill to reduce the side effects of a cervical ectroption and as soon as they cut the bastard out I'm getting off Diane-35...

when using for acne treatment,find an alternative or consult your doctor before taking this pill.It will make your skin beatiful while @ the same time ruining your body.I've been taking it for 4 months now.
