Hello,
I have been taking YAZ for less than a month and I, too, have ringing in the ears. I have also experienced other side effects, so I plan on changing to another BCP after this cycle.

I have been on Yasmin for 10 months and have experienced ringing in my ears for 8 of those months. I too have loved Yasmin, no other side effects, but this ear ringing has finally irritated me too badly and I will most likely be switching. I've done some research and Yasmin alters the fluid levels in your inner ear, it also can act as an electolyte which can also cause fluid inbalances in the ear. That is what causes the ringing. It has gotten worse for me over the 8 months but I'm sad to have to switch.
This registry is a place to share positive or negative side effects of using Yasmin. If you directly experienced a side effect while using Yasmin, then we encourage you to enter it here. Please note that entries here are the experiences of individual users, and in no way means that you or anyone else will experience the same side effect, since the same medication affects people in different ways. Please always contact your physician.
