Hey, I have been on Yasmin for over a year now, and four weeks ago I noticed that I had numbness on one side of my right foot and around my lower right leg, and the side of my left toe was also numb. I thought I might have MS, but after reading this site, I think I will stop taking the pill and see if the numbness goes away. I am scared to stop though, because the reason I am on it anyway is because of a hormonal imbalance that is causing me to lose my hair and grow facial hair. I have read so many people here saying that they have started losing a lot of hair, and for someone who already has thin hair, that is a scary concept. There is only one side effect that has not touched me, and that is the loss of sex drive. I am not having sex because I am waiting for marriage, but let me tell you, there are plenty of times that I wouldn't mind it! Oh well, I guess everyone has their own experience. Thanks for all of the posts; they have really helped me to not think that I have an incurable disease.
