I just stopped taking the diane cos i forgot to renew my perscription so i missed a month. in that time i have had three periods(!) the first one began normal. that was when i realized i had to renew my perscription. but it went on forever. then i started and i got this second period. started off with very black blood and clotting. lasted about a week and came with cramps which i never have. decided to go off it for a bit to see what was going on and now got a third period. very sore stomach. clotting. black blood. feels like my uterus is falling out of my body. but hey - my skin is great! also interested in the reports of lack of sex drive. mine used to be crazy and now i can't get my body going even when my head is there - it's like it's not responding properly. and have felt completely exhausted for about four months. the first half year was not bad but the second half... i don't know if it's the pill or not but i feel like a different person. does anyone else have these problems? i am going to the doctor next week, but i was wondering if i am the only one feeling like this and have multi periods with clotting?

>>��>>��I've been on Diane 35 for almost 5 months now - not for contraception but to control my PCOS. I have found it to help me lose weight, clear up my skin and give me periods (I didn't have them regularly as a result of the PCOS). I have noticed that I'm getting more cramps each month than I had before, as well as sometimes getting them in-between months.

>>��>>��>>��>>��Hi I too was taking the Diane 35 pill for a while, although i didn't notice spotting I have noticed weight gain, headaches, and the blues. did you speak to your Dr about this pill?? because I live in Canada and I guess this pill hasn't been approved as a birth control pill but rather as a cramp helper/skin clearer.

>>��>>��>>��>>��So i wasn't really sure what to think of it!! I've gone off it recently and I'll let you know if I see or feel any changes. your spotting is probably because you switched...but I'm not a Dr.!!
