Wow, I have been on Yasmin for almost 4 years and I never even thought to connect my symptoms with my birth control. This might even be the reason me and my ex broke up. I was really sweet and happy go lucky before getting on the pill. Then around the time I switched birth control when I was 21, I started getting moody all the time and would pick fights with my boyfriend. Little things would send me over the edge. I even had an eating disorder in college because I felt so fat and gained 15 lbs in a year which is a lot for someone who is 5'1 ( I haven't had an eating disorder in a few years though). Recently, I just got tired of feeling so depressed and went to the doctor. He prescribed antidepressants which I hated and stopped taking them after a week. So, then a couple of weeks ago I saw this commercial about side effects on Yasmin and that there was some lawyer talking about suing the company, etc, etc. Well that got me to thinking about it. Maybe it is my birth control that has given me all these problems? Now I think it was because it has been 2 weeks since I stopped taking it and now I feel much better and less bloated. I mean, I woke up this morning went to the gym with a smile on my face for the first time in forever, even had a flat tire and changed it without getting upset before work. Before, I would have had a hissy fit and wrote the whole day off as a loss. So, I recommend talking to your doctor if you start seeing personality changes and weight gain.
