| 5 | birth control | I love Yasmin...I've been on a bunch of different birth control pills, and this is by far the best one. Satisfied for 5 years. | Don't be too quick to attribute all your health problems to Yasmin, especially those of you who have only been on it for a few months or weeks. Any birth control takes time for your body to get used to; you just have to wait it out. Your health problems could definitely be caused by something else. Please contact me if you have questions about it! | 26 | 5 years | 2/26/2008 | 4 | | 9/20/2009 | 3 | | 6/6/2006 | 3 | | 6/7/2006 | 3 | | 1/8/2009 | 3 | bad pms heavy periods, endometrio | nausea, vomiting, tiredness, pms, pain in legs , loss of appetite , Extreme confusion, fogginess, forgetfulness | I have been on this for 18 months, at first my pms vanished, the epriod were the lightest i'd ever experienced! and my skin was the clearest. I was so pleased. But then I was extremely depressed... which i do suffer from, so didn't think it was the pill. Lately, my cramps have returned, my breasts hurt and my periods are heavy again and I am completely fatiqued all the time, as i was from my normal period cycle 1 week before period. So its like i'm permantly pms -ing. I forgot two pills this month (in the second week) and have started to bleed, so I am now stopping to see if anything changes or improves. I already feel less foggy and when i would have my breaks i was alway less confused. I think PMS and thyroid probs are related..alot of british docs are in the dark with endocinology. happy to hear from people! | 18 months | 2/12/2009 | 3 | | 2/24/2009 | 3 | | 3/11/2006 | 3 | | 2/22/2006 | 3 | | 7/11/2006 | 3 | | 7/15/2006 | 2 | Contraceptive | Extreme leg pain | I have only been on Yasmin for about 3 days now and I have experience severe leg pain. I did not experience any mood swings or any of the other symptoms other people mentioned here on the site but the leg pain was enough for me to stop wanting to take it. | 28 | 3 days | 3/29/2009 | 2 | birth control | I was on Yasmin for 2 years. The only good thing it did was shorted my period from 7 days to 3 days. The week of my period I felt physically and mentally exhausted. I felt completely run down and didn't want to deal with life. I even called out sick to work numerous times while on that pill. | 2 days | 2/13/2007 | 2 | Birth Control | I have been taking Yaz for 6 weeks and I kinda feel like I am losing my mind. I have had migraines, been extremely fatigued, and even felt the need to purge. I also feel like I have gained weight. | | 7/18/2007 | 1 | DUB/Ovarian Cysts | No libido, Extreme fatigue, depression, leg cramps, weight gain, sluggishness, nausea, upset stomach-I thought I had a two-week stomach virus | Although my cramping has lessened and I did not have any breakthrough bleeding, the side effects are way worse than the original conditions being treated. I am glad that others have shared their similar experiences as I thought I was entering the "change-of-life" very early! | 29 | 30 days | 6/21/2007 | 1 | | 11/12/2007 | 1 | | 12/27/2005 | 1 | Pregnancy prevention | Crying all the time, anxiety, depression, nausea, shaking, violence, irritation, moodiness, feeling sick and so much more | 22 | 3 months | 4/12/2020 | 1 | Birth control | Yikes do not take this. I've never had a panic attack in my whole life and I had a ton after starting this pill it was literally the worst day of my life | 2 days 1X day | 12/8/2022 | 5 | Perimenopause/birth control | Nothing but regular periods, clear skin, and my excess weight is finally coming off. ( I was on HRT since 2011 which really f.ckd up my body. ) Increased energy no more joint pain. | Great for hormone regulation, weight loss, skin clear. | F | 48 | 3 months 1X day | 9/11/2021 |
