I have just started my fourth pack of Yasmin and hadn't really experienced any serious side effects. However, whilst finishing my second pack i suddenly got a bumpy, itchy rash across my face and swollen eyes which i just thought was an allergic reaction to make up i was using. But these symptoms have continued up until now, sometimes getting slightly better but then worse again. I have stopped using anything which could be irritating my skin but i can only think it must be the Yasmin. I normally have oily skin but now it is so dry and itchy, i have eczema around my eyes and they are very red. My entire body is itchy really but the rash has not spread. I am going to stop the pill now and see if my skin improves because i cant put up with the pain anymore.

I have been on Yasmin also. I have been getting a rash on my upper arms and thighs. It itches so bad and looks like hives. I didn't take yasmin last month and I didn't have the rash. I also am having mood swings and thought they were just due to stress but after reading the posts I'm not sure that it isn't the yasmin.
