Diane 35 (Cyproterone Acetate; Ethinylestradiol) Buyer and Patient Handbook in Singapore
What is Diane 35?
Diane 35 is a combined oral hormonal pill containing cyproterone acetate and ethinylestradiol, classified as a combined oral contraceptive and anti-androgen. It is primarily used to treat Acne, oily skin and Hirsutism in women, and it also provides reliable contraception. The product meets WHO, FDA and EMA quality standards and is available in a 2 mg/.035 mg tablet form.
Who Should Use Diane 35?
- Women of reproductive age seeking both contraception and treatment of androgen-related Skin Conditions.
- Individuals with moderate to severe acne unresponsive to topical therapy.
- Patients with hirsutism (excess facial or body hair).
How Does It Work?
The estrogen component (ethinylestradiol) suppresses the release of follicle-stimulating hormone, preventing ovulation. Cyproterone acetate blocks androgen receptors and reduces androgen production, which diminishes acne and hair growth. Think of it as two brakes working together: one stops the ovary’s cycle, the other slows down the “male-type” hormones that cause skin problems.
Why Choose Diane 35?
- Dual benefit: contraception plus proven anti-androgen effects.
- Once-daily dosing simplifies adherence.
- Offers a cost-effective option compared with separate acne medication and a contraceptive pill. Off-label uses such as treating Polycystic Ovary Syndrome should be discussed with a qualified health professional.

Reviews
Been on Diane 35 for about 3 weeks now for my hormonal acne. My skin is definitely less oily, which is great, but the nausea in the mornings is brutal. I've found that taking it right before I fall asleep helps a ton, otherwise I feel seasick all day. Also, my boobs are super sore, which I wasn't expecting at all.
My doctor prescribed this for PCOS. It's only my first pack and the mood swings are real. One minute I'm fine, the next I'm crying over a commercial. My friend who's been on it for years told me to stick it out for at least 3 months, so I'm trying. The bloating is another thing nobody warned me about. I feel puffy all the time.
Two years on Diane 35 for acne and it's been a lifesaver. My skin is completely clear now. The key for me was taking it with my biggest meal of the day, usually dinner, to avoid any stomach upset. I did gain a bit of weight initially, around 2kg, but it stabilized. Libido took a hit, though. That's the trade-off, I guess.
Using this for over a year to manage my hirsutism from PCOS. It's slowed down the hair growth significantly, which is a huge relief. I have to be really careful with sun exposure though, I get burnt so easily now. Always wearing sunscreen and a hat is a must. Also, my period is like clockwork, which is nice after years of irregularity.
Prescribed for severe cystic acne. It took a good 4 months to really see the results, but my face is finally smooth. The first few months were rough with breakouts and being super emotional. A hack my derm told me: drink lots of water to help with the headaches. I still get them if I'm dehydrated. Worth it for clear skin.
Been on Diane for 5 years for birth control and it's been reliable. No pregnancy scares. The downside is it totally killed my sex drive. It's like a switch flipped off. I've tried taking it at different times of day, but it doesn't change anything. My partner is understanding, but it's frustrating. Works great for its main purpose, though.
My experience is mixed. It cleared my skin beautifully, but I think it's making me feel low-grade depressed. Not sad, just... blah. No motivation. I started taking Vitamin B12 supplements after reading it might help, and it's made a slight difference. I'm debating if clear skin is worth this flat feeling. Might talk to my doc about switching.
I took it for 6 months. Acne got better, but I had to stop. The constant, low-level anxiety and heart palpitations were too much for me. I felt jittery all the time, like I'd had too much coffee. It just didn't agree with my system. Switching to a different pill with less anti-androgen effect was a better fit for me.
