Pros:

no more pimples- clear skin

Cons:

wiehgt gain!!!! feeling hungry all the time!
depression!!

I was quite a skinny girl. Then i had acne and was prescribed juliet 35. Within 2-3months my skin cleared up, which was great! but then i realised i had gained alot of weight and no matter how much exercise i would do the kilos weren't going they were increasing! i also felt sad and cried at the most silliest unhurtful things, it just didnt make sense!! Considering i use to be a very happy person. I am now about to complete my 7th month on this pill, and i am now starting the pill yasmin. So let's see how it goes! Write the results sooooon..

Pros:

Acne cleared up well, lighter, shorter periods, able to skip periods

Cons:

After using this pill for 5 years, when I went off it i was no longer moody or feeling fatigued all the time - i felt great. but my skin got really bad, all over my chest and back. And for the last yr, i've had shocking recurrent thrush

After going off this pill I felt fantastic - no more moodiness or fatigue. But then my acne came back, all over my face, chest and back. And for the last year, ive suffered recurrent thrush which cleared up as soon as i went off it.

Pros:

I took this pill to eliminate my facial hairs, along with electrolysis. It worked really well!!! There was also a noticeable difference in my not all that bad skin which got much clearer.

Cons:

Extreme hunger which led to wieght gain. I gained 15 lbs. in 4 months!!!!! extreme headaches, and thirst, and my face and stomache were definitely bloated.

The cons defintely outweigh the pros. I stopped taking this pill just over 2 weeks ago and I feel and look much better already!!! I've lost weight (with a diet), lost my headaches, i feel much lighter and to my surprise my face is clear!!! My sister and friend are on Yaz now and the side effects are not nearly as bad- they both lost a few lbs. on the pill, and are seeing amazing effects.

Pros:

Clearer skin all over, skin less oily

Cons:

Price is expensive, frequent headaches

I have been using diane 35 for 4 months and my skins is clearer than it's been in a long time. After 3 months my skin was still pretty bad so I was skeptical but after the 4th month my skin is clear but still has acne scars, my back and chest are perfectly clear but i get occasional pimples on my face but not as bad as before

Pros:

clear glowing acne free skin, bigger boobs, birth control

Cons:

mood swings and price

It was recommended to me by my doctor since i was 16 for my irregular cycles. It really works to regulate my period plus they are way lighter and less painful now. After a couple of months my acne was gone and to avoid it coming back i usually take it on and off, at least stop it off for like 3mths every year. This is the best product ever.
