Diane-35 Mechanism of Action – How Does Cyproterone and Ethinyl Estradiol Work?

Diane-35 pills holds a combination of two active ingredients, Cyproterone and Ethinyl estradiol. Cyproterone belongs to a group of medications identified as antiandrogens, while Ethinyl estradiol belongs to a group of medications called estrogens. Cyproterone and Ethinyl estradiol are together used for the treatment of certain serious cases of acne in women that have been unsuccessful with other primary treatment such as antibiotics. Diane-35 tablets works by adjusting the hormones that control the health of skin.
Diane-35 pills belongs to the class of oral contraceptives which can be used to prevent pregnancy in women who are using it for the treatment of androgenisation symptoms such as treatment of acne. Diane-35 pills is a combined oral contraceptive pill which contains a progestogen (Cyproterone) and an oestrogen hormone (Ethinyl estradiol). The daily dose of combination hormones in the Diane-35 pill produces fake ovulation circumstances in the body and makes it seem like ovulation has already occurred.
Based on this scenario, the release of a mature egg is prevented from the ovaries each month.
The hormone combination also increases the mucus thickness of the cervix, making sperm entry into the uterus (womb) difficult. This prevents fertilization of the egg by the sperm. The hormone combination in Diane-35 tablets also alter the thickness of the womb lining (endometrium), making implantation more difficult for a fertilized egg.
