Hi everyone, I have been on Yasmin for 3 years and I found it compared to the other pills I have been on not to bad. I did have the occasional mood swings but it was worse on other types of pills. However I have as of last week decided to go off it as my partner and I are trying to have a baby! Coming off Yasmin I have found much harder all last week I was in tears over nothing, and the last three days I have had a server headache and dizziness. I assume these will go over time and ill let you know.

The thing about 'hormones' and the 'benefits' of birth control is that there are OTHER methods of addressing these things without risking suicidal depression or fatal lung clots!!!! Sure, YAZ may 'work' for you, help your migrains, but, giving ALL of the info on this page ALONE, if I were you, I would seriously consider whether or not any negative affects are 'building up' in your system. Women and female teens are DYING because of this and the worst part of it all? Bayer or whomever is manufacturing this poison has ALREADY 'factored in' the 'collatoral damage' of the female s that will either die from its use or will suffer indefinite debilitating symptoms. That carnage was in their business model even BEFORE it hit the market. So, is a law suit in order - by all means YES!!! Has YAZ 'helped' some women? Perhaps... will those same women that 'benefit' from YAZ suffer in the future on account of this poison? I've STOPPED taking it and who knows how far reaching the will be. My MD did NOT review ONE SINGLE RISK with me NOR did she (and yes, it was a 'she' not a 'he' = unBeLIEVable!) review my family history to determine if YAZ would KILL ME! Good that it helps your migrains which are terrible to deal with... Better if you continue to monitor yourself for possible side effects like those listed on this post. My side effect? I took YAZ for less than one week. On day 2 I was suicidally depressed and felt like DEATH. I cried for 3 DAYS STRAIGHT for NO APPARENT REASON. My head hurt, I could only lay around, I was confused and just ILL! After stopping on day 4, I didn't regain my 'normal self' and am still suffering...
