I took Yasmin for 5 months. I was sick while on it and decided to go off of it. My doctor said that it was not the pill, but as I got sicker she agreed I should go off of it. Within days I was in the hospital and for three years I suffered deteriorating health until we found that Yasmin had lowered my serum b12 very much and that deficiency will progressively cause many severe health problems. I also had low vitamin D and low protein c antigen which left me at higher risk of clotting. My symptoms: heacd aches, stomach problems, all digestion problems, swelling and weight gain, severe blood clots during menses, burning stomach, joint pain, heart palpitations, irregular heart beat, feeling cold at times, low body temperature, low blood pressure, confused thoughts, depression, low libido, as I got worse I also developed numb left leg and foot, numb hands and breathing irregularities during night time. I also suffered a miscarriage due to the b12 deficiency which was undiagnosed, because the fetus could not assimilate folic acid without enough b12 in my body. I found an Endocrinologist that listened to me and he ruled out all hormonal issues and found the low serum b12, vitamin d, low protein c antigen. He then recommended me to a cardiologist who said I had a slight mitral valve prolapse something I had never had, which he felt had become symptomatic due to the severe health crisis. I saw an gastroenterologist, because I had taken Yasmin with Advil and it is contraindicated, but I was never told that. I saw a hematologist, who said my blood issues very hard to explain and after a year and seeing my medical record for years prior to Yasmin told me it seemed things changed after I took it. I am now in good health, but it took me 3 painful years to get here. I also got acupuncture to ease my symptoms. Good luck to all of you! I have found out that in the US their is some work currently to bring litigation forward.
