Hi Loulou,

I went on teh Dianette for a month. I had really bad cramps after I came of it. When my period came It was agony. The cramps and feeling sick. After that I just came off it.

Now, Ive just decided to TTC and am on Clomid.

Dont let this put you off, as I know people who have been on it and have no bother with it at all. I did notice, the month I was on it it cleared my ache up well.

good Luck

Hi Loulou,
I was on dianette for about 8 months and I found it great. My heavy, painful periods got much lighter and regular and I wasn't ill in bed for two days every month with the pain anymore! My facial hair improved but I think my body hair stayed pretty much the same. Also, I used to have really bad spots on my face, back and chest and that really improved too. I was really glad to be on it.

Recently though, my doctor told me that she thought I should go on Yasmin instead as there had been reports of deep vein thrombosis connected with Dianette. She told me it wasn't really anything to worry about but that it was prob best to switch to yasmin anyway. I had no problems at all with Diantte.

Good luck with it!
