Hey ladies
I've never had any panic attacks or anxiety with Yasmin, in fact I believe mine has decreased... but that is the problem! I hardly feel any emotion, no desire for sex unless initiated by my bf, constantly lethargic and tired.. some chest pain at night, and insomnia/anxiety around ovulation
But my biggest side effect is SEVERE headaches. they are disabilitating, come without warning, and are so intense and severe that I can not make it through my daily day. If I take my pill at the EXACT same time everday, the headaches are minimal, however, if I take the pill a half hour or hour later than I am suppose to, the headaches will persist throughout the entire month... Did anyone else experience headaches like this?
Also, my actual period was not how it was suppose to be...very sticky and chunky it was scary.
In general, I believe Yasmin was just making me feel sick. I had really bad experineces with other birth control (ortho tri cylclen low made me puke every morning as well as get my period randomly) and I have decided to give my body a break. I am using Vivex (chaste tree berry) and St Johns Wort to keep my periods regular and avoid any of the depresssion that hear comes from quitting bcp. I only hope my body can regulate itself and return to normal!!!
