Wow, what a wonderful site. Its wonderful to know Im not the only one having issues with this...
I was on yasmin for one year to regulate my menstrual cycle. I had two major issues while on the drug - bloating, and NO sex drive whatsoever. I stopped taking Yasmin for two months, and I was a total nutcase. All I did was cry. I was so depressed and soooo anxious. They tried to put me on lexapro! I couldnt sit still, I worried all the time about everything, and I couldnt sleep a wink. This was in August 2005, and Im still dealing with the side effects.
Worst of all the high estrogen levels in Yasmin raised my normal estrogen levels to sky high. Now i have to deal with hormone treatment to get my balance back on track.
Definitely a bad move on my part. I would not recommend this drug to anyone.

My experience with Yasmin was decreased aggression, mood stability and increased breast size. when I stopped taking the drug, I had an increase in aggression, less fatigue and no weight loss.
My T-3 levels are fine. My blood work is fine. Not many headaches. My mood became more depressed when I stopped taking Yasmin.
Not sure if I am suited to take the drug. So, I am starting Yasmin again to see if I notice side-effects. My estrogen levels were low prior to starting Yasmin the first time. So, I am wondering if my testosterone is a bit too high, and if Yasmin levels me out so to speak.
I think those with normal estrogen levels, prior to taking Yasmin, are badly affected by Yasmin. I wonder if those of us, with lower natural estrogen levels are as badly affected by Yasmin.
Will let this site know in a few months.
ALSO get this pill from Canada - ******
It costs $22 and it is the exact same packaging, etc.
Hope this helps
