Pros:

Im using the generic Estelle but apparently it's the same. My doctor also put me on epiduo for my acne as well.
-With both of these my once terrible acne is now 50% clear.
- The severe redness my skin once had is 50% better as well which is good :)

Cons:

-My acne did have a really bad breakout at the starting few weeks of this.
- If I don't take the hormone pills before I go to bed it makes me nauseous.

For me it's something I'm sure will continue to work and clear up my acne completely but for now I'm happy with its progress.

Pros:

Got rid of all acne
Regulated period

Cons:

Worsened period pain
Weight Gain
Feeling of depression/mood swings

I started taking Diane at 14, after 4 years of periods that were inconsistent, but usually about a week apart. I was also having painful acne. I have been taking Diane for over a year now. Initially the results were great, but gradually I had put on over 10kg. Also, I had not had much period pain before the pill, but now I am in pain up to 24 hours before my period and lasting for the remainder. I have had times of depression, ranging in severity, and have actually pinpointed it to a particular point in my cycle, which never happened before. The results do part, especially with acne ( I love my skin) but as for the rest of it :( I am soon changing to another pill.

Pros:

Clears up acne
Provides contraception
Lighter periods

Cons:

Expensive
Only temporarily solves the problem

I've had problems with acne since my teens and am now in my 30s. I have tried Diane 35 in the past for teen acne without much success.This was the last resort before taking roaccutane and has worked brilliantly, even after 5 weeks. I would definitely recommend it for anyone suffering from hormonal/adult acne!

Pros:

clearer skin
smaller pores
less oily
shorter periods
less cramping

Cons:

some spotting in between periods
it took a long time to clear my acne, probably six months

This product has helped so much. I have had acne for many years and even though I'm in my 30's, it was still bad. Now I finally have clear skin! I have had no weight gain, increase in appetite, or any hint of moodiness or depression. I would absolutely recommend Diane.
