Dianette also know as Diane-35 is used for the treatment of androgen-dependent diseases in women, such as:
Acne
Androgenetic Alopecia
Mild forms of Hirsutism (excessive hair on face and body)
Dianette contains two active ingredients, cyproterone acetate and ethinylestradiol.
Cyproterone acetate is a type of medicine called an anti-androgenic progestogen. Androgens are male hormones, and are produced by women as well as men. They are responsible for stimulating the growth of the skin, including the sebaceous glands that produce oil (sebum), and the hair that grows from the skin.
Too much production of androgen in the body can cause excessive growth of hair, acne, inflammation and infection.
If your body produces too much androgen, or if your skin is particularly sensitive to the effects of androgens, the sebaceous glands may produce too much sebum. This can cause the sebaceous glands to become blocked, resulting in infection, inflammation and acne spots. The androgens may also cause excessive growth of the hair on the face and body - a condition known as hirsutism.
