I'm glad I came on this site.. My GYN gave me Femcon FE because he saw that I have a cyst on my left ovary. I hard horror stories about birth controls, like weight gain, acne, and nausea.. I am afraid of all three of those.
He told me to start taking them over the weekend and I asked him will there be any side effect and he told me that I would like the pill.. I just gave him a look and said I will be doing some research on this pill and if I read any stories about bad side effect I will not be taking them.
So thanks guys for your comments...
I WILL NOT BE TAKING THIS PILL..
I'll just wait for the cyst to disappear on it's own.

Hi

I have been taking Yasmin for 10 days - after 7 days I started getting headaches which I very rarely get normally - and one day a severe headache. I also started getting allergy-like symptoms - constant sneezing and itchy eyes. Apparently one of the side-effects of yasmin is hypersensitivity - in any case nothing else has changed in my environment, diet, lifestyle.

Although these symptoms may disappear - given all the messages I have read I have decided to stop taking Yasmin - even if the symptoms arent so bad now I could be storing up trouble.

Yasmin was effective in stopping the bloating and constant hunger I had on my previous pill - but I think the potential risks outweigh this benefit. Like other people I have looked on the net for complaints about other pills and found almost none. It seems like this is a new product which is being aggressively marketed (like all new drugs - nothing different there), playing on women's insecurities about weight-gain and skin problems and which has not been properly tested. I was recommended this pill in South America...... so this is not just Europe or N America. Apparently the manufacturers have been doing very well.
