Vaginal thrush symptoms and conditions

I only tried these pills for one month because I have high levels of testosterone and the doctor suggested Yasmin would be a lighter pill to fight the androgens without sideffects... I tried Androcure before that and the experience was awful BUT yasmin was even worse...

After only one month on Yasmin I gained 7 pounds, I feel totally bloated, unattractive, depressed, tired all the time, woke up sweaty with horrible back pain every morning (especially the last week), I got massive red spots all over my face, my period lasted for 2 weeks, my libido has disappeared, I got suicidal thoughts every single minute, fought with everyone for no reason at all... and whats worse I got candidiasis (a.k.a vaginal thrush) for the first time in my life, followed by itching, burning sensation, dryness and now I am under therapy to get rid of it.

Supposedly this pill would get rid of my hormonal imbalance but in fact it made me much worse than before... My only advice would be to stay away from it, no matter what. Its the worst pill I've ever been on and I threw away the packages for the next months.

I've just been through two weeks of inexorable synthetic-hormone hell (the surreptitious diuretic notwithstanding.)

Now, my life was no walk in the park prior to my two week consumption of Yasmin, but thanks to the extremely painful cystic acne break-out and yeast infection with subsequent smarting vulva, alongside exacerbation of my depression and increase in suicidal ideation/social phobia, plus vaginal spotting nearly everyday since my period stopped, I can safely claim all notions of the aforementioned 'park' (and any nearby verdure) have been concreted over with planning permission granted to a pharmaceutical drugs monopoly peddling this toxin to unsuspecting women.

I should have known something was awry when the pill's inaugural admittance to my body was met with a severe bout of vomiting and I have been feeling intermittently nauseous all throughout my course.

I truly believe just this short spell has marred my mental discernment and judgement, I'm sure my partner would concur also, the culmination of this shift in mood being my decision to split with him! I have been feeling so detached and downcast with ever-decreasing interest in sex, and this is some volte-face for a 23 year-old with a former intractable hankering for online pornographic password cracking!

Doctors should not be prescribing this symptomatological timebomb as a 'safe', 'symptom-free', 'good fit' to swathes of the female population undeserving of their first ever panic attack, or to put a slightly less reactionary spin on it: their first ever foray into the searing world of vaginal thrush with an irascible helping of labial discomfort.

When I awoke two days ago with a shooting pain in my buttock, I realised I'd reached the point of no-return! My oestrogen/progesterone limen was reached and I hastily discontinued use. I'm not even sure if the buttock was just waging a sublimated protest or if it's also a pandemic side-effect but when one's gluteus maximus undergoes a paraleptic surge you know it's time to abjure this hormonal cartel.

I must also add, in common with many people who've written here my breasts are also extremely tender and sizeable.

I have promptly stopped taking Yasmin and would implore others to do the same before things escalate. It is regrettable that so many women ply their bodies with these pharmaceutical drugs on a long-term basis solely for the purpose of contraception. I don't think it is a healthy lifestyle choice not least because when you loose your own physical homeostasis and sex drive, vicariously subjecting your body to an unnatural regulatory system it is not a good situation for any relationship. Therefore, the very modus operandi of the pill becomes obsolete anyway.
