I have been taking Diane 35 for 9 months. I live in Poland and we have this on our market but I heard that there is no way to get Diane 35 in USA. O'K. That is not my point. Good results of taking Diane 35 was that I finally stopped losing my hair, I didn't have to wash them every day or sometimes even twice a day because they were more "dry" in the positive way. I also had regular period - I even knew what time exactly it will start. The bad news is that it didn't actually help with my excessive body hair problem and with my weight. In my opinion it even didn't let me lose a few pounds. I took the last pack in December 1999 and since January till May 2000 I manage to lose 20 pounds.

I am not sure what results do you look for. I would suggest that you take Diane 35 for the next few months and than decide whether you want to continue. It could have other influence on you that it had on me.

If you have any additional questions I will be happy to help.

Good luck,
