Taking Diane For PCOD And Excess Hair Growth, Dark Brown Discharge When Taking Pills. What Could Be The Problem?

Hi I am 24 years old and recently i have started Diane 35 for my PCOD and for excess hair. I have taken 15 pills this month.This is what the doctor has prescribed me. I have started taking it once my period had started. The problem is that while i am taking my pills I keep getting dark brown sticky discharge 2 weeks after my period which was short this month 3-4 days. What is the problem? I really want this to stop.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Let me explain you the sign ( symptoms) of PCOD.
Poly Cystic Ovarian Disorder ( PCOD ) also call as PCOS (syndrome) , so don't confuse.
Having following symptoms as,
Alteration in LH/FSH ratio,
Elevated serum testosterone & androstenedione levels,
ultrasound finding , of atretric follicles with increased ovarian stroma,
androgen excess manifesting as hirsutism and acne,
menstrual irregularities dysfunctional uterine bleeding or amenorrhea,
obesity.
I have mentioned these symptoms just for your information .
Since this is in early stages ,so treatment is possible.
In my opinion cyproterone acetate ( diane 35 ) is not a suitable treatment for PCOD , so consult one more Gynaecologist and get his opinion and treatment.
Hope I have answered your question.
If further any question I will help.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
