Diane 35 Description
About Diane 35
Diane 35 is a combined oral contraceptive sold in Australia. It contains ethinylestradiol 35 micrograms and cyproterone acetate 2 mg per tablet. It is used for birth control and to help with acne and excess hair caused by hormones.
How it works
The pill lowers the body's androgens. It reduces oil production in the skin. This can improve acne and lessen unwanted hair. At the same time, it provides reliable contraception when taken daily as directed.
Who should consider it
A doctor decides if Diane 35 is right for you. It is not for everyone. Do not use if you are pregnant or have certain medical conditions. Avoid if you have a history of blood clots, liver disease, or hormone-sensitive cancers. Smoking over age 35 increases risk.
How to take
Take one tablet at about the same time every day. Start on the first day of your period or as advised by your clinician. Do not skip days. If you miss a tablet, follow the pack instructions or ask your pharmacist. Typical packs are taken for 21 days, followed by a 7-day break.
Safety notes in Australia
The Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration monitors safety. Common effects include nausea, breast tenderness, mood changes and headaches. A rare but serious risk is blood clots. Seek care if you have chest pain, leg swelling, severe breathlessness, or coughing up blood. Smoking and age increase risk.
Possible side effects
Most people tolerate Diane 35 well. You may notice light breakthrough bleeding in the first months. Some report weight changes or mood shifts. If side effects are troublesome or persist, talk to your GP or pharmacist for guidance.
Benefits for skin and hair
Many Australian users take Diane 35 to treat acne and androgen-related hair issues. Clearer skin can appear after a few cycles, and some notice slower hair growth. It helps to set realistic expectations with your clinician about timing and results.
Availability and cost
Diane 35 is prescribed by a GP or specialist. Online pharmacies in Australia can dispense after a pharmacist review. Prices vary by pharmacy and whether you have private health cover. Always choose a reputable online store with pharmacist support.
Customer review
“I tried Diane 35 for my acne and stubborn chin hair. After three months my skin looked calmer and clearer. I had minor nausea for a short while, but it faded. My period stayed regular and I felt more confident.”
Tips for new users
Keep it in your daily routine to avoid missed doses. Use a backup method for the first week if you start at a non-bleeding day. Store tablets in a cool, dry place away from heat. If you have questions, contact your pharmacist for advice.
