Wow, I never thought that some of the health problems I experienced in the past few years was related to Yasmin until I read this website. I had been on Yasmin for 5 years, I just went off of it in late August as my husband and I would like to have children next year. I found this website because I wanted to know what sort of side effects I would get by going OFF the pill. Well, let me tell you, by being ON Yasmin for 5 years, I experienced the following: -major migraines (never experienced these - 4 were blinding where i had to just lay down because i couldn't hold my head up) -weight gain (a lot of weight, for virtually no reason) -shortness of breath (when i've never had that before) -high blood pressure (when i've never had that before) -heart palpitations (when i've never had that before) -anxious feelings, especially in work situations -loss of energy - inability to work out for no real reason i am 31 years old with no health problems before going on Yasmin. now that i have been off it for almost 2 months, i feel 10x better both physically and mentally! i hope to lose the weight i gained while on Yasmin. i just got my blood pressure taken this past weekend it was normal-low. the last 2 times i had it taken while i was on Yasmin, it was high. if you are taking this pill, please go off of it ASAP. Tell your friends not to take it as well.
