I experienced a stroke after being on this pill for only three months. I have no doubt in my mind, nor do my doctors, that Yasmin was the cause of the stroke. I had experienced 15 lbs weight gain, fatigue, and headaches prior to the stroke. If you are over 35 or if you have ever had migraines, don't take this medication! And if you begin having severe headaches while on Yasmin, don't wait for them to go away or give yourself time to "adjust" to the medication. You are gambling with your health.
