And while it is primarily prescribed for these conditions, its hormonal qualities mean that it provides contraceptive protection to the user as well. However, it should not be used solely for the purpose of contraception. Acne and excess facial hair in women can occur due to a hormonal imbalance. In the body, androgens are responsible for the facilitation of skin and hair growth, enabling the release of oils from sebaceous glands, called sebum.
But in those cases where androgen becomes overly abundant, these glands may generate too much sebum and then become obstructed. This can then lead to skin inflammation, acne, and increased hair growth on the body. The active ingredients in Dianette are cyproterone acetate and ethinylestradiol. Cyproterone is known as an anti-androgen, and ethinylestradiol is a synthetic version of oestrogen. This medicine works by blocking the androgenic receptors, thereby lessening the effect of androgens on the skin.
This helps to prevent symptoms of inflammation and acne. These agents also perform contraceptive functions in the body, by inhibiting the release of eggs from the ovary, changing the consistency of the uterine wall to make egg implantation more difficult, and thickening vaginal fluid to make sperm less agile. This product is not intended to be used solely as a contraceptive, but it is a viable method of contraception for those experiencing acne or excess hair growth.

Do not use this product if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Speak to your doctor about treatment options. While the oestrogen prevents an egg being released from your ovaries, the anti-androgen stops the hormones that stimulate hair growth and the grease glands in your skin.
Using Dianette not only provides women with protection against unwanted pregnancies, but its main use is to also treat skin issues. Issues with the skin, such as acne and excessive hair growth can be sensitive for women and treating this gives them more confidence. If you produce too much androgen, or if you are sensitive to the effect, the grease glands may produce too much sebum.
This can block the grease glands, which can become infected and inflamed causing acne spots. Dianette stops the androgens affecting your skin and reduces the amount of androgens produced, leading to clearer skin. Dianette is a prescription-only medication. Always follow the advice of your doctor and read the patient information leaflet provided in the medication packet. Take the tablets orally by swallowing whole with some water. When starting Dianette, you should take the first tablet on the first day of your next period to ensure you have protection from the first pill.
If you wish to start taking Dianette but are already on a different pill, then you should start your Dianette on the day after you finish your last pack of the previous pill. For women who have just had a baby and wish to start Dianette, this should be 21 days after delivery provided you are fully mobile.
However, for the first 7 days worth of pills you will need additional contraception such as condoms to properly protect against pregnancy. If you have had a miscarriage or abortion then consult your doctor in regards to taking Dianette. The packets are clearly marked with days of the week and arrows to guide users on the direction of use.
Follow the direction of the arrows, taking one tablet a day until you finish the pack. Once you have had the 21 tablets in the pack, you should have a 7 day break with no pills. Dianette is effective as a contraceptive so it has an additional therapeutic indication but it is not prescribed to women who would not benefit from its anti-androgen properties.
It is possible to buy Dianette online if you have been prescribed this medication before in a face to face environment. Simply click on the button below to start the process. Dianette is appropriate for women who have severe acne or who have abnormal hair growth hirsutism. Dianette would not normally be prescribed as the first line of treatment for acne; antibiotics would normally be attempted first. If the patient requires a contraceptive pill as well, Dianette fulfils this dual purpose.
The cyproterone acetate works to inhibit the action of the androgens by blocking the receptors that the androgens normally work on. Skin should become less greasy within a few weeks and problems with acne and excess hair will take longer to abate. As a contraceptive pill, it works similarly to all other combined pills in that the drug will make the body think that ovulation has occurred, thicken the mucus around the neck of the womb in order to make it difficult for sperm to get through to fertilise an egg and change the quality of the lining of the womb so that a fertilised egg would not be able to attach itself to the wall of the womb.
As explained above, Dianette should not be used solely for the purpose of contraception but rather it should be used for treating acne and hirsutism in females. It is recommended that 3 to 4 months after the skin or excess hair growth problems have cleared, Dianette should be discontinued.
It may be necessary to go back on Dianette at a later date if the problem recurs. Dianette can also be prescribed for women who have thinning hair on their scalp although this would normally only be considered after a consultation with a dermatologist. The tablets are taken for a period of 21 days followed by a pill-free 7 days, during which normal menstrual bleeding should occur.
If a pill is missed then that pill should be taken as soon as possible, while continuing to take the others as normal. Women will still be protected from pregnancy and do not require barrier contraception in this case.
