Diane is a combined oral contraceptive pill used primarily to treat severe acne and hirsutism (excessive hair growth) in women of reproductive age. It combines cyproterone acetate, an anti-androgen, with ethinylestradiol, an estrogen. This combination helps to regulate hormonal activity, reducing the symptoms of acne and hirsutism. Diane also acts as a contraceptive.
