Mixed review. Although I have only been taking Yasmin for two weeks, I am pleased to say that it has yet to cause a migraine. My previous experience with the pill, otho-trycyclen lo made me suffer every morning.I also packed on a few pounds with that pill. The Bad: This pill -(Yasmin) exhausts me.I'm so tired, that I had to convince myself for seven minutes to write this review. Constantly fatigued, and then depressed because I'm tired and don't want to have sex with my boyfriend-(this is blasphemous, my boyfriend is a stunner) It's a vicious cycle. Do not take this pill with Advil. I went completely numb, and my B/P dropped to 81/67. I had to smoke to get it back up. Definitely more moody. Overall, I feel very blah. Less attractive, which makes the libido take a nose dive.Vaginal itching. Everywhere itching, actually. Painful intercourse. Feel like a virgin again. Teared up here and there, sobbed over yonder. Itching. Not quite sure if it's because I reside in San Francisco-where mold and allergens are plentiful, or if it's the pill. Bloating? Let's see....Felt bloating in the abdominal region for the first week, now it's subsided. I really think the major flaw in this pill is that it drains you of all energy so then of course you feel ugly, depressed, less sexual and fat. If I get a migraine, this pill is history. I think I'm gonna give it an earnest three month try. Why am i at home writing this? Its Saturday Night! Oh yeah, I'm too tired.

I really don't think you can take Yasmin with anything....lol. I took it with a Tylenol and I thought I was going to pass out! The bad part about is-is that the symptoms last until Yasmin is out of your system.
