i ve been taking Yasmin for almost two years and few months ago i notices brown spots under my eyes. At the beginning i thought it was just me being too tired or luck of sleep. But in the summer i noticed it was discoloration of the skin, brown spots under my eyes. I visited a dermatologist and he told me its side effects from the birth control pills and that there is no treatment and he only gave me a cream which will make it less dark. I am never ever taking birth control pills again. Also I ve put a lot of weight.
