Hi, I have been on Yasmin for almost a year now. And only in the last three months have I started experiencing side effects. I thought I was silently going out of my mind, I have cramps in my abdomen, dizziness, constant headaches, mood swings from hell, nausea, a runny tummy, tiredness, hot flushes, intense cold,and Strain Injury of the right wrist, back ache and shoulder ache,depression, and just a general ill feeling.. I cant complain of acne as yet. Reading what others have gone through have opened my eyes. This pill is evil. What i don't understand is how can doctors prescribe this if they are aware of the side effects and what it does to us. I am stopping it immediately I only hope the withdrawal process is not as bad as what I fear I am going to go through.

I read your posting about Yasmin. I have been on it for a month and have the "dizzies" all the time. I couldn't imagine that that it was my birth control, but after reading the postings I think it is!! I have always taken allergy meds and never experienced anything like this. I thought maybe I had a sinus infection or something but have not experienced any sinus headaches so I know it is not that. I think I am going to take myself off of this pill.
