Product Info

Dianette is a combined oral contraceptive proven to be almost 100% effective at protecting against unwanted pregnancy. It’s also become a highly popular choice for women who have acne or suffer from hirsutism (excess body hair) as it can help to assist in treating both of these conditions.

The active ingredients in the Dianette pills prevent pregnancy in three ways. They prevent ovulation, make the mucus around the cervix thicker and stop the womb lining from growing. A thicker cervical mucus makes it harder for sperm to enter the womb, and a thinner womb lining means an egg cannot attach itself to the womb lining to grow.

Benefits of Dianette contraceptive pills

Women who have cases of severe acne or hirsutism, which is excess body hair, are often recommended this pill because it is known to treat those conditions. This is due to the hormones present which reduce hair growth and greasy skin.

Side effects and risks

Dianette birth control pill may cause certain side effects when being taken as a contraceptive pill. Importantly, these may only present themselves mildly and should completely stop once the treatment has been used for a certain amount of time; as the body adjusts to the hormones the side effects usually reduce. Side effects include headaches, upset stomach and nausea, changes in menstrual bleeding and menstrual spotting.

Weight changes and decreased sex drive are also common reactions. If these side effects should grow worse or not alleviate as treatment progresses, you should consult your doctor about possibly changing to a more tolerable pill.

Dianette pills should not be taken if you suffer from liver or heart problems, are pregnant or breastfeeding, have experienced a stroke or have hypertension, diabetes or high cholesterol.

How to take Dianette pills

Dianette is a monophasic pill which means the hormones levels stay the same throughout the month when taken. However, unlike other contraceptives, you only need to take the pill for 21 days of the month. After this you have a seven day break in which you do not take any tablets. Dianette pills also come in a special calendar pack which makes it easier to track when you need to use the specific tablets.

Dianette pills should be taken every day at the same time to ensure the highest levels of effectiveness.
