Hi everyone, I have been on Yasmin for 3 years and I found it compared to the other pills I have been on not to bad. I did have the occasional mood swings but it was worse on other types of pills.
However I have as of last week decided to go off it as my partner and I are trying to have a baby! Coming off Yasmin I have found much harder all last week I was in tears over nothing, and the last three days I have had a server headache and dizziness. I assume these will go over time and ill let you know.

Hello, I have read over most of these side effects and i would have to agree and be afraid of most of it. See I was diagnosed with bronchitis/pneumonia, they prescribed me these pills along with steroids. I have not taken the steroids yet but I did take my first dose of levaquin about 12 hours ago around 8 pm. With my dinner and plenty of water and fluids. I went to bed late with my fiance but not cause of the medicine, we decided to stay up and watch movies. Although, it did help my coughing and breathing, I felt bloated or ballooned up all of a sudden and it was starting to hurt my stomach. I figured it was the food I ate and all the water I have been drinking. So, next I noticed some minor vaginal discharge of which looks like when I'm ovulation so I pasted that as that. Now I woke up at 5:30 in the morning when I went to bed at 2 am and I can't go back to sleep! I woke up from a nightmare to see things in the dark to scare the %$^* out of me. I had this really bad taste and dryness to my mouth I felt like it was suffocating me. I cant seem to think straight or type well (I had to go back and review what I wrote but I might not have gotten all my mistakes) I feel like I have ADD I keep forgetting how to spell simple words... I mean the list keeps going and going. I am writing now because I am currently on it. I will not be taking this medication anymore much less the steroids but if anyone reads this, I hope you read first then take.

I have been prescribed Levaquin multiple times for bronchial infections. The most recent being approx. a month ago. I have NEVER suffered a side effect from this medication. The types of side effects everyone is reporting here sound very bizarre. I know a number of people including my husband, friends, grown children, etc that have taken this medication multiple times as I personally have with no side effects whatsoever.

The thing about 'hormones' and the 'benefits' of birth control is that there are OTHER methods of addressing these things without risking suicidal depression or fatal lung clots!!!! Sure, YAZ may 'work' for you, help your migraines, but, giving ALL of the info on this page ALONE, if I were you, I would seriously consider whether or not any negative affects are 'building up' in your system. Women and female teens are DYING because of this and the worst part of it all? Bayer or whomever is manufacturing this poison has ALREADY 'factored in' the 'collatoral damage' of the female s that will either die from its use or will suffer indefinite debilitating symptoms. That carnage was in their business model even BEFORE it hit the market. So, is a law suit in order - by all means YES!!! Has YAZ 'helped' some women? Perhaps... will those same women that 'benefit' from YAZ suffer in the future on account of this poison? I've STOPPED taking it and who knows how far reaching the will be. My MD did NOT review ONE SINGLE RISK with me NOR did she (and yes, it was a 'she' not a 'he' = unbelievable!) review my family history to determine if YAZ would KILL ME! Good that it helps your migraines which are terrible to deal with... Better if you continue to monitor yourself for possible side effects like those listed on this post. My side effect? I took YAZ for less than one week. On day 2 I was suicidally depressed and felt like DEATH. I cried for 3 DAYS STRAIGHT for NO APPARENT REASON. My head hurt, I could only lay around, I was confused and just ILL! After stopping on day 4, I didn't regain my 'normal self' and am still suffering...
