I've been on Yasmin for maybe 2 cycles, before I went to my doctor yesterday to see if I could stop it mid cycle.

side effects that I noticed (or had pointed out to me).
-severe mood swings, severe decrease in libido, general fatigue and depression, vaginal dryness, soreness, itchiness, it feels almost painfully tight?, my tits became monsters that increased at least a cup size that wanted to escape my shirt (my boyfriend appreciated this part, but they were very painful), general bloatiness/weight gain, binge eating (I normally don't have much of an appetite for anything, and forget to eat in between, school and work)

I also get headaches, fatique, decreased sex drive, and don't feel very happy, even though I just got married and have a lot to be happy about. I think I might go off of this too hearing that other people have had these side affects also. I do get cystic acne when I am not on birth control so I am scared to stop taking it. But I definately felt like a different person before I started taking it. Oh my.

HI everyone especially Tiffany,
You sound just like me. I was on it for 3 yrs. and the last 6 months were the worst. I didn't know that I was sooo sick b/c of the pill until I stopped it of course. Tiffany, your symptoms are what I went through the last 6 months I was on it. I went to so many Dr's until I found this post.

I too went to the e.r b/c I almost passed out while shopping. I was nauseaus, had diarrhea, severe anxiety, I would have to pull my car over and sit for a while. The last week I was on it, I had 6 panic attacks in one day. Horrible depressive thoughts, and I'm soo not that type, It was so absurd, by this time I was so used to them I could try to control them a bit.

I thought I had food poisoning at least 8 times in one month, b/c I woke up vomiting and the other for no reason. (now I know it was the b.c) but at that time I didn't.

I really feel great now. I've been off for 4 months had 3 normal periods, (or what I should call yamin periods) and now I am almost 2 weeks late. I can only imagine it's on it's way. If you see from some of my previous posts, I have all of the signs, but who knows.

There are still times where I will have a slight leg pain, or slight slight numbing, but I know why it's happening and it is totally livable and I"m just happy to be here. By now I'm sure the Dr's would have had me all dopped up on some form of drug.

Thank goodness for this post. Just remember we were putting a drug in our bodies for so many years. Me only Yasmin for 3 yrs but I've been on some form of b.c since I was a teen.

So keep your head up and when you feel like shi* read these posts. I read very less frequently now, (however due to my lateness I've been checking every day) but when I first stopped taking it I checked and posted every day. It's really great encouragement no matter what stage of recovery we are in!
Oh yeah one more thing, my fatique got so bad I would fall asleep at 7 p.m and sleep until 8 am and still have a hard time getting up however, it was a very restless hot sweating sleep.

Thanks to everyone,
Hill
