Negative crap symptoms and conditions

Thank God for this website because it confirms my feelings that Yasmin was causing very negative side effects. I gained 15 pounds in about 2 months, feel very agitated most of the time, very sore breast most of the month, decreased sex drive, oversentitivity to touch, and sometimes feel shakey and have dizzy spells. I have broken out in a rash on now several spots on my arms, and have had little bumps all over my back almost since the beginning of taking Yasmin. Today, because of reading these postings, I have realized all this negative crap has come around since I started taking this pill. The rash on my arms didn't start until 3 months after being on the pill and it is at its worst right after I take the pill in the morning. By bedtime it is very light, and by the next morning it is almost gone. I understand that all drugs effect people differently, but from my experience, this is a very scarey bcp and everyone should think really hard before trying it.

I've taken about 5 different birth controls in my life and have NEVER had any side effects... until now. Quasense has made me so unbelievably grumpy, tired, and hungry... and I'm losing my sex drive without reason. I almost lost my job the other day simply because I was cranky beyond belief. I'm breaking out like I'm 14 again. I'm gaining weight that took me SO long to lose in the first place. And I feel like I'm going through menopause; HOT, cold, HOT, cold. YUCK!!! I'd have to say that Yaz (name brand) and Alesse(sp?)- a generic brand (not a generic of Yaz!)- have been the best ones I've tried, so I'm switching back to Alesse. I'd rather have a period once a month than have all this negative crap with "less" periods a year. It's not worth it. Seriously. I suggest you ALL try something else. Yaz is name-brand AND cheaper than Quasense AND Seasonal! Good luck to all of you- I'm switching back today!
