I am a 38 year old woman. Three weeks after starting Yasmin , I ended up in the hospital for 9 days with pulmonary emboli. All my genetic test came back negative. The doctors have blamed Yasmin for the blood clots in my lungs. The pulmanary doctor said no woman over 35 should be taking birth control especially potasium retaining Yasmin. User beware.
