Hi, I have been on Yasmin for 2 years now. I have ALWAYS been a ...

Migraines that are now clockwork can be attributed to you adjusting to the pill BUT this is not normal. I too had migraines and finally would only experience them around my period. Chest pains are the major side effects that could lead to a heart attack, regardless of your age....migraines can also be couple with tingling or numbing in one or both arms and fingers hurting, body aching. Have you been slurring your speech at all? I can't state this enough....you are experiencing BAD SIDE effects that can lead to some permanent damages to your body. The advantages to this pill arent worth the migraines each month. I thought they were too, but after being off for about a month, the migraines are completely gone and I no longer experience chest pains or shortness of breath, or slurring of my speech or serious signs that I was going to have a stroke. Please talk to you doctor and please research and listen to your body. It's warning you of trouble.....

I took yasmin when I first got married. It was fine for the first couple of months and then I turned into a basket case! I would cry at the drop of a dime and then fly off the handle for no reason. I now take seasonal and I love it. I get birth control and I only have to deal with a period once every 3 months. It's great!
