I was proscribed Yasmin for acne problems but straight away, I ex...

I started YAZ in Nov 2006...not for acne, just because I wanted to try it. It made me sick too! Not only did it do that, but it also gave me migranes, isomnia, the shakes, etc... It was horrible. I have been off of it for about a month...i still have some side effects but it is not nearly as bad as it was!

Hey,
of course we have all experienced similar problems with Yasmin... read the posts about it and u will understand why u should drop it immediately (think u already have judgin by the date of your post, good for u :)
I am also on Diane 35, been on it for some months now, it is true that the symptoms r not that intense, not at all actually... but if i am in this site at the moment, it is because i have started to expereice some of the awful symptoms accopmanying yasmin after 8 months use, only on a smaller scale and after a long use... i also took up diane for acne , i have a doll's face now but u know what? it's not really worth to not be able to get a good night's sleep or suffer constant panic attacks... my suggestion is go off the pills and find alternative treatments, i know i know, they just don't work, had the same... but something will work, and this cannot be the pill because the pill will only make u crazy after a long use...
that's all, hope i helped u, i am not prejudiced about BCP, only that my experience with them and other people's experience has showed that they r not that good to certain ones of us out there... :)
bye bye, best luck, E. xxxx

Try taking Yasmin at night. I experienced the same problems as you. Once I switched to taking it at night, the nausea went away. On my third month of Yasmin and my skin is clear, all other side effects (breast swelling, breakthrough bleeding, breakouts, bloating) have gone away.

I've been on Yasmine for two days and my cramps etc. have intensified this period. I DO take the pill at night and have been nauseous since i started it, and threw up today on more than one occasion.
