I've been taking Yasmin for 4 months now and in that 4 months I've had 3 bladder infections; before that I had one almost 27 yrs ago when I was very young. I have also found myself crying at the drop of a hat and being really depressed for no reason. I started taking them when I began dating someone seriously so I assumed the UTI's were related to an increase in sexual activity (although UTI's had never been a problem before when I had an increase in sexual activity). I started researching the cause for frequent UTI's and BC is one of the possible causes. I have stopped taking this pill and I'm anxious to see how things change. I'm also going to see a urologist to be on the safe side.

I totally understand what you are experiencing. I started having symtoms of a UTI and became very concerned and wondering why am i experiencing this terrible thing. But i feel a bit comforted to know that the pill is a posiible explanation for me feeling this way. Also, my mood is out of sorts; crying for no aparent reason and just wanting to be left alone. My bf started to get concerned because of my behaviour. As soon as i read your comment, i called him and told him that there's someone else experiencing the same side effects.

I just stopped taking Yasmin on Monday so I'm hoping I'll get back to normal soon. I'm going to see a urologist in a few weeks just to be safe. I'm also looking forward (hopefully) to not being so moody and depressed this month. Hang in there!
