>My symptoms haven't come back completely. I still feel pretty good. The only changes I have noticed is that my testosterone level is up according to blood tests. As a result,my skin is oilier than it was on Diane. I have been off it for 4 months and I haven't broken out. I used to break out terribly each month with my period. My hair is also oilier. The one thing that bothers me is that I was experiencing hair loss before going on meds. The Diane and Spiro stopped it. Now, I notice that it is increasing again. I am hoping it levels out. I am also on 2000 mg of metformin. My doctor said that it should prevent my symptoms from coming back in full force. So far, he's right. Good luck!
