I had really good results on Diane-35 (available in Canada & UK - but not the US). Stayed totally clear for years while I was on it. Switched to Alesse and that was a nightmare beyond belief. Am now back on Diane-35 and clearing up. Acne back to mild and hopefully clear again soon!

So not sure which is the "best" ... as everyone is different. But in my experience, Alesse is the WORST. I wouldn't wish Alesse on my worst enemy.

Good luck and hopefully clear skin ahead!
