   Yasmin Users: a few questions??? (Birth Control board)

16th August 2007
[QUOTE=5han;3158436]I take YAZ which has pretty much the same outcome as Yasmin does. I hated it to start with. I had breakthrough bleeding within the first week, my boobs hurt so bad, my lower back and ovaries felt like they were ovulating constantly, I was significantly more tired than I had been before the pill, and I also felt sick to my stomach a lot. I was a tiny bit moody. This all lasted for about 2 weeks and I was just about to quit taking it the bleeding stopped, the pain stopped, the fatigue and breast tenderness stopped. I have noticed my boobs are indeed bigger, and my moods have been sooo even keel for the past 4 months. I have never felt like a more sane person. I had PMDD pretty bad. It would last 2 weeks before my period and a week after, so I only ever had 1 week per month where I was normal. Now I'm ALWAYS normal. I'm not sure if yasmin has the same effects though. I also used to get about 4 or 5 migraines every month due to hormone fluctuation and now I only get 1 a month EXACTLY when I start my sugar pill and my hormones drop, and I don't mind that as much.

So yeah, if it causes unpleasant side effects, keep taking it! Get your sleep and drink plenty of water and the side effects could be gone in as soon as a few weeks. Your boobs will probably grow though. This was a good thing for me.

Have you gained weight with YAZ and did your face break out. Did your complexion get better or worse? The doctor put my daughter on Levora 24 and I have not read great reviews about it. Some people say they have really bad break out of acne with Levora 24. Thanks for your help with YAZ
