Hi ladies,
I just discovered Diane 35 is now banned in Dubai! I've been taking it for 8 years (except the gap when I conceived n was preggers last year) and it's the only thing that helped my acne!

I'm so sad, I don't know what to do for my skin since it's a hormonal problem so skincare etc can only do so much!

Going to see my gynae next week for advice, but does Yasmin or any other pill help the skin as well?

My doctor's nurse said they are apparently stopping yasmine too but I'm not 100% sure of that. my doctor did prescribe gynera for me though. But definitely see you doc before switching to another pill.

Diane 35 is not allowed in France anymore as well and I guess most countries. http://www.fiercepharma.com/story/france-yanking-bayers-diane-35-market/2013-01-30 Would rather have acne... <em>edited by UmAboody on 17/03/2013</em>

Yes Yasmin helps with acne but you should definitely talk to your dr before starting using it
