HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Diane can sometimes be used for acne so it is possible because, it was discontinued that you are experiencing the oily skin because the drug is not present in your system.
This does not affect your ability to conceive.
The presence of a headache should also not have an effect either.
If you do experience difficulty conceiving then your doctor can investigate to find a cause.
If it is PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), then weight loss of any excess weight would help as well.
I hope this helps
