Your body is indeed addicted to Diane, and the gentler you are with yourself the better you’ll do in the long run. I doubt that will cause acne, but you might start getting withdrawal headaches along with your “periods”.
I think it’s a great idea to start by taking a 7 day break between packs. Sorry it’s taken me forever to get back to you. Although your posts have given me SO much hope, I’m still nervous about what’s going to happen once my body no longer depends on the chemicals. I’m really determined to go through with this, but after that awful breakout in 2004 I’m nervous. Now I just need to find a good way of balancing my hormones once I’m done. I’m going to start by cutting off 1/6 of the pill, then 2/6 etc, and I want to be off in within 6 months. And there was probably a hormone imbalance at the root of all that.Īnyway, I’m going to wean myself off Jasminelle. Now, reading your website, I realize that I may just have been sensitive to some foods – as you say, what works for some does not always work for others. I was already a health-freak, and I tried so many food combinations, but nothing seemed to do it for me. I tried to come off Diane 35 in 2004 and broke out badly after having been clean for 6 months (I also had NO period for 6 months), so I just went back on. My lifestyle is pretty impeccable – I eat very well, no drinking/smoking etc, but the other morning ago I woke up at 4am in utter panic, and suddenly realized that I’d been on this junk for a decade (I’m 29)! I’ve spent the last 10 days documenting myself on the pills I’ve been on, and I’m shocked to read SO many terrible things that happened to innocent women who just followed the dr’s orders. I’m lucky not to have any of the terrible side-effects experienced by so many women. I’m French, and over the past 10 years I’ve taken Diane 35 (Dianette for those in the UK), Jasmine (Yaz), and Jasminelle (Yazminelle).
#DIANE 35 ACNÉ RÉSULTATS UPDATE#
I know it’s been a while since you posted this, but I just thought you might be interested in having an update from people trying to wean themselves off the bcp. I plan to do another month at 3/4 pill, then cut down to a half pill. And, it’s kind of nice to feel feelings more deeply again, instead of functioning like an emotional robot. I did start to get hot flashes in the past few days, which coincides with the extra emotion.Īlso, some of my libido is definitely returning, which is a great thing. So far, my approach is working very well. But because I take it for PMDD, I don’t want to bring on a psychotic hormonal episode by just going completely off of it. It also makes my hips and joints hurt, and my muscles have been feeling super weak and cramping up a LOT. I learned that estrogen works to break down collagen in your body.
I’ve never had cellulite in these places before. Fronts of legs (UGHHHH), tops of arms, belly. I’ve developed MAJOR cellulite all over my body (and I’m thin). Mainly because of what it’s doing to my joints and muscles. So far, what has happened?Ī) my energy levels have improved – I felt sluggish all the time before and now I have lots of energy – also, I need to mention that this doesn’t fluctuate – I have energy all the time, no matter what day of the month it isī) in the very beginning of weaning off, I got a couple of minor zits, which went away fairly quickly and I haven’t gotten any more sinceĭ) my moods have been consistently more upbeat, except this week as I near the end of my second pack of weaning off pills, I felt pretty emotional, but I have a LOT of stressors in my life very recently, so that could be why. Right now, I’m in month two of taking 3/4 of a pill each day (that’s one half piece and one quarter piece). My method includes taking a razor blade, cutting the pills in half, and then cutting one of the halves in half (to produce two quarter pill pieces). I’m in month 2 of weaning off of YAZ birth control pills.
