I have a problem that affects not just my body and face, but my mind also. That is why I found the only solution to visit my doctor and beg for help. He diagnosed me with hisrustism, and prescribed me pills. Since I am 25 years old girl, he asked if I would like to have contraception the same way we are treating this condition. I have a boyfriend and I found it useful, so he prescribed me Dianette. Now I would like to know if that is appropriate drug to treat hersutism, or my doctor made mistake.

This drug is commonly used to treat acne and hersutism. Its main use is as a contraceptive pill, but this should not make you worried. It is commonly prescribed medicine for hersutism, and you should take it as your doctor prescribed it to you. You should know it comes in a pack, which contains 21 pills that lasts a month. The doctor will normally prescribe 3-6 months worth at least to treat your hersutism. The pill needs to be taken everyday at a regular time for 21 days, I hope you get all the instructions about this. There will be a 7-day break in which time you will have a period and bleed. There are some side effects, which may occur with Dianette, as with any other medicine you would try to treat your hersutism. These are deep vein thrombosis, liver disease and strokes, but you should not let these side effects put you off taking the contraceptive pill. You must know they only happen in rare cases, and you are more likely to get rid of hersutism then experience any of these side effects.
