pill change

I've been on Dianette for about 2 and a half years and my doctor now wants to change me onto Cilest.
I've got my last packet of Dianette to take and then I'm going straight onto this new pill.
Just a quick question...will this mess up my cycle at all or will things just carry on as normal?
I really could live without bizarre messed up periods at the moment

    I'm not sure about this one, I'd guess it affects people differently. The only advice I'd give is to call the fpa and ask - it's manned by trained nurses who know their stuff!

    From what i remember it doesnt mess up your cycle.

    i was on Oysmen, tried one packet of Dianette to help my skin, didnt work so went back to Oysmen.
