Hi. Welcome to HealthcareMagic

Acne in females could be because of hormonal imbalances. Since you are already on Diane -35 (given to normalize hormonal imbalances ), which must have been started by your gynecologist or dermatologist, so I would suggest that you continue with it for 6-12 months.

Since you have inflammatory acne so, If I aws your treating doctor, I would have started you on Oral Azithromycin Or Oral Doxycycline for 4-12 weeks depending on the response.

Topical antiacne gel e.g clindamycin gel during day time and Benzoyl peroxide gel for night time application would act to decrease acne, together with oral medicines.

take care
regards
