    Hiya
    I was on diannette, came off it in July 07, and still waiting for my bfp. It took 42 days for my first proper period to come, then was completely regular. What would you like to know?

    Don't want to put you off, but yes lots of changes as the pill comes out of your body. Greasy hair, spotty jaw line (and never got spots previously) - one of the benefits of Dianette I presume. Did not put on any weight though. Mood swings - not that I can recall. Are you waiting 3 months before ttc, or at least until you get your first proper AF? I thought mine was never going to come, but 42 days later it arrived, then switched to regular 28-30 days one month, then 26 days the next. My AF is much lighter now, compared to being on Dianette which is fab. Good luck

    I was on pill from the age of 18 till about 32 - started off on light one - Femodene, then progressed to Microgynon / Yasemin - then headaches kicked in, and I got a bit of dermitisis on my face (or maybe a bit of stubble rash from partner - will never know the truth) - anyway, was switched to Dianette - and the headaches stopped, rash healed and never looked back - skin was really good! Drs did try and keep taking me off, so went back onto other pills, but always seemed to return to Dianette as just suited me. Then came off the pill completely July 07, when we starting ttc from Sept 07 - no joy yet though image
