Oh my goodness.. I have been on Ortho Tri- Cyclen Lo for four years and lately it has been making my life a living hell. I have been experiencing some of the same things that you guys have been experiencing. My sex drive have been horrible, like to the point that it has put my relationship in the pitches. I have been having mood swings, depression, ( where I don't want to talk),suffering for anxiety. I mean it's weird I just don't feel like myself around that time of month. Can somebody help,cause I due to go to the doctor in the morning and I want to try out yaz... TALK TO ME ......SLAUGHTER'S GIRL

I was on Ortho Tri cyclen Lo for about a year. At the beginning it was great sex without condoms, larger breasts, less cramping but thena few months later I started to become massively depressed. Literally crying ever other day! My sex drive was nowhere to be found and it was definately affecting my relationship. Finally, I decided to throw in the towel and see how I felt if I stopped taking it. The first week was horrible, constant headaches etc. but then a few weeks later I became my normal self again. I felt happy and relaxed for the first time in a long time. Although my boyfriend and I are back to using condoms, I honestly couldn't be happier and my sex drive is through the roof. If you think you can go off BC I would highly recommend it. I feel so much better. Good luck.

Check out the side effects of Yasmin on this website. I was recently switched to it from ortho lo and I just called my doctor to get off of it after reading the 4,000 replies from people who have had really bad experiences with it. I would not recommend trying it unless you read about it first.
