I started taking Dianette as my first ever contraception pill. It is a combined pill which gives me migraines for a period of time. I was told to stop using it immediately as it put me at an increased risk of having blood clots and stroke. Now I am left not knowing what to do. Overall it did not give me any other side effect and I see a big difference on my skin. It is just me having a reaction to estrogen-related pills.

I had HORRIBLE acne so finally went on this pill when I was 18, (22 now). Although my skin had cleared up dramatically within about 6 months, I took a break during lockdown and my skin had a big flare up so am now scared to come off it. I don’t have a high libido anymore and I feel numb a lot of the time.

Cleared my chin acne up after years of trying all the face washes and skin routines I could find.Took a few months but skin has been completely clear for a few months now back to back (about a year in). Bloating and mild headaches are main side effects. Have had a more delicate stomach in terms of reacting to things/ bloating since being on it - never really had that before. Overall happy but I am worried about staying on it due to the clot risk - is having clear skin worth that risk?
