I started taking Yasmin in July. I had taken other traditional birthcontrol pills for years. Decided to try Yasmin as my OBGYN suggested it may help with weightloss as I was having a really hard time losing weight despite diet and excercise and ruling out other issues. I have not had the side effects such as anxiety and skin pigmentation that others mention. It did make my periods heavier and more cramps. Cramps mostly went away with ibuprophin. However, I have been having a symptom that I am wondering if others have had. I have been to my primary care doctor, orthopedist, nuerologist, vein specialist, and no one can seem to find the issue. I am now wondering if it could be a Yasmin side effect. Since mid July what started out as a tingling (almost numbness) in my upper right thigh. It sometimes feels like pins and needles, other times like a bruise, and other times like a sharp pain. Seems worse at night. But numbress is always there. I am very interested in hearing what people have to say. I am going to make an appt with my OBGYN to try another pill.
