This medicine should be taken off the market immediately!! I am 30 yo and have been taking Yaz since September of 07. I have had such bad panic attacks, anxiety, nausea, gall bladder disease, and a laundry list of other odd effects that have taken over my body. I have been told by my doctor that I am depressed and was prescribed Xanax for those attacks that come out of nowhere and as of the other day he prescribed Celexa, which I took one dose of as directed and it put me over the edge. It was not until I read posts on this web site that I realize this Yaz pill is what has done this to me. I am reading all these comments from other women on this site and I feel like I am looking into a mirror. I had such a bad panic/anxiety attack this weekend I ended up in the ER and when I told the doctor I took Yaz he of course had never even heard of it which I guess is normal as it is not a med that is prescribed on an ER basis but regardless, I have stopped taking it and hopefully will be on my road to recovery. I hope someone else out there reads this and finds some peace with them self that you are in fact NOT crazy the medicine you are taking is.

Dear all,
I am surprised with all your comments and i am sorry to do such a harm.
I initially started to take YASMIN at my age of 16 to regulate my menstruation. I am now 26, nearly 27 years old. So far I have no negative side effects that I want to share because there are none.
The only thing I can share with you is that I have had a nice facial skin (no acne), didn't put on weight, regularised menstruation. Maybe had became a bit more moody, but to assure that it was from YASMIN intake I had to remove from my medical and social history all the factors that could have cause it. Example: relationship issues, moving to another country, life independency... I mean there are a lot of side factors that could have helped the increase of stress levels and so forth...

Before making any judgement about what YASMIN makes be sure you are doing health exams properly.
Read all the information about other pilules' side effects. Because be in mind that all the pilules and whatever medication or antibiotics has...

be well...
Patricia
