I just stopped taking Yasmin 2 weeks ago, I think I need more time to get back in balance. I went off because I was experiencing: -severe pain in my right calf, right where a vein is visible under my skin! I am only 28. -horrible muscle cramps in my legs and feet in the middle of the night -THE DRYEST SKIN EVER!!! I look like I have wrinkles, and all my life I have had perfect skin, no pimples, and very youthful, but since Yasmin, severely dry WITH pimples and bumps and uneven tone AND pigmentation - Terrible mood swings and PMS, much worse than before yasmin, and depression - dry skin over all of my body - restless sleep - headaches, never had them before yasmin - dry wiry fuzzy hair - extrememly dry eyes, and sensitivity to light, causing more headaches, and pain when driving in sun - forgetfulness - Extreme sensitivity to sunlight on my skin, this is scary because I have olive skin and never get burnt, yet in summer, on yasmin, I was burning after just a couple of minutes in mild sunlight, and when I got burnt I pealed in huge areas of raw looking skin and got no tan at all, which has never happened to me in my life, nothing would burn me before, and I could tan in a couple of hours with no dryness or anything - cellulite looks worse - enlarging of pores on face I think that's it. I am waiting for all of these things to go away, so far they have lessened just slightly. I am looking forward to feeling young and healthy again! Thank goodness for all of you posting here, you have confirmed all of my suspicions!
