September 7, 2008

Pros:

completely clear skin, slow growing/no body hair after shaving

Cons:

weight gain, moody, constant bloated feeling, cravings, poor libido, scaring stayed but didnt look bad

took it a while ago along with minomycin and two creams: retin-a gel and duac <--- extremely effective i reccommend use of these alone if acne isnt too severe. my skin was completely clear and glowing and the effect was immediate. minomycin(no sure how to spell) makes your pimples to come out and appear red though but it helps to an extent, minomycin though is pretty crap. but after i stopped minomycin which initially helped my acne bulgaris on my back my face and back were completely clear and my side effect headches from the minomycin stopped so it wasnt diane 35 which (i thought) caused the headaches. take diane 35 only IF YOU NEED TO. it made me gain a lot of eight. lots of cravings and a poor libido. andi still have scars in light skin coloured appearance.

Pros:

Skin oiliness greatly improved and blackheads practically gone, back ance improved slightly, no effects on sex drive, hair thick and shiny

Cons:

Chronic yeast infections (every single month), weight gain and bloating, cellulite, loss of firmness in legs

Won't take it forever, as I can't bear to have cellulite nor the yeast infections, but I will continue to take it for a few more months. I love not having to blot the oil off of my face every 30 minutes (and it's hot outside, too!) and to not have major breakouts on my back (though there is still some acne). I just hope the skin benefits don't disappear after I quit taking it!!

Pros:

Acne is alot better but not completely gone. Bigger breasts. Regular periods, lighter. No cramps.

Cons:

Didn't completely work (still lingering acne).

Works well, but doesn't totally clear the issue. The birth control side is a nice advantage. No adverse effects at all! A little point: the package instructions say to only take the pill for a MAXIMUM of 6 months.

Pros:

there were none. besides protected sex

Cons:

gained weight despite vigourous exercise and healthy diet. mood swings,vaginal dryness, lack of sex drive.

my body did not agree with the medicine at all. acne was less anyway, but it still used to pop up once every month just before my periods. so it did not help my acne either.

Pros:

mmm i dont know i haven't seen any results yet

Cons:

i feel depressed and noticed a blood clot on my legs

i wanna keep using it at least 6 months more cause i think is too early to judge if it works or not (i've been using it for two months)
July 3, 2008

Pros:

cleared my painful cystic acne completely! it took three months, my acne got worse during the first month.

Cons:

i have gone up two dress sizes and im wondering if its going to stop, im hungry all the time! i was super moody for the 1st month, but not now after 6 months i feel great, im just very voluptuous.

warning to those who struggle to keep their weight down. being acne free is amazing! it works.
