hi there!!
i have been on yasmin for about a year now.
i took my last pill on the 17th april 2006 and am now on my periods.
i have decided to stop taking it because i have had the following symptoms;-
- nausea
- no sex drive
- mood swings
- numbness and tingling in the body
- severe anxiety
- depressive thoughts
- lack of interest in everything
- pain in the upper back leading to the back of neck and head
- ears and nose get really cold
- feeling like im going mad
- scared of something but dont know what
- severe migraines
- PANICK ATTACKS
- alternating diarhea and constipation
- stomach pains
i was ok on it at first had abit of NAUSEA but i thought it was worth putting up with it if it got rid of my acne (as i have polysistic ovaries) and it did.
the last couple of months have been hell i have suffered from severe panick attacks and migraines everyday i have been so so scared.
i have had bad upper back pain which goes to the back of my head and neck and effects my eyes, they hurt sooooo bad, DOES ANYONE ELSE SUFFER FROM THIS SYMPTOM PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
i have stopped taking yasmin its my 6th day of it and i feel better but not properly
IS IT YASMIN CAUSING THESE PROBLEMS?
IF SO, HOW LONG BEFORE I FEEL NORMAL AGAIN?
PLEASE HELP ANYBODY I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SCARED IM GOIN CRAZY!!!
THANKS
SOPHIE

hiya everyone, Silke,
hope you are all doing fine!!
i have now been of the yasmin for 3 and a half months and have been feeling a lot better. my periods have been pretty regular. the migraines are still there but not as bad as they used to be. the anxietty has calmed down too.
i am abit worried to have read the posts today especially the one from Hill dated thursday 20th july. its reall scared me.
silke arnt things supposed to get better around the 3-4 month mark? i dnt think i could bear the stress and pain that this pill caused me at its worst.
i have been taking evey day slowly and things are looking better and i dont want all them problems again. the last period i had was the only one that i didnt have migraines on since stopping yasmin. the 2 before that were awful i thought my head was going to explode or something. i couldnt take them.
just want to feel normal again and have the energy i used too.
i hope everybody gets better soon.
silke i really do hope your ok and getting through this with no problems
take care and god bless!!
sophie
