dianette and hair growth

[houda]

I am 31 & I have been taking dianette for few years until few months ago. My hair does not grow. If it does, I can't see it. I cut my hair last year up to my neck, and until now, it hasn't gone past it. Plus, it's a lot thinner than before. Does anyone know what is happening and what to do?

I seem to remember that Dianette is often prescribed for problems with excess hair, (facial hair etc.) and acne which I think is caused by a hormone imbalance (too much "male" hormone). Could it be curbing the normal hormones you produce to grow hair? Not a scientist as you can tell!
