I haven't had any of that. I am feeling much better than when I was on microgynon. Have you been back to your GP?

I started takin Yasmin as my doctor prescribed itby for PMT. It has if anything made mya moods worse, given me sore boobs and a constant appetite. I have also felt sick for weeks, so I have taken it later on in the day for the past few days and have not felt sick until a short while after taking it. So I'm stopping it immediately. Its also a coincidence I've had a bloated stomach and constipation since taken it

Also forgot to add extreme tiredness and depression worse.

I’ve been on this Yasmin pill for a few months now and I have to say I’m really happy with it! I am a bit more emotional and sad but that comes with any pill really. I’ve gone through about 3 pills and found this one is the best. I have shorter and lighter periods and no cramps which is amazing. My skin is clear and my boobs have grown also. I do recommend this but keep in mind every pill has different effects for everyone - https://healthful-online.com/c2831/yasmin.html

I have been taking Yasmin for a couple of years for pms/pmdd. I love it - has been amazing for me. I don't have any pms symptoms at all now. I take it continuously (no 7 day break).

I'm aware there is a slight increase in the risk of developing some health issues, but it is a risk that I am happy to take. I'm in my 40s and intend to keep taking it until I'm 50....and then maybe move on to hrt.
