I decided to start taking Yasmin, hoping to help ease the severe pain I suffer each month from cramps. I have been on Yasmin for 3 weeks. Like alot of people, I am experiencing the "acne" side effect. My face has broken out in huge red bumps, especially around my chin. I am 27 years old and my face looks as though I am going through puberty again, it is very bad even with make-up on. I have also experienced the breast tenderness and lack of sex drive. My stomach feels bloated and gassy. I also have had problems with my stomach getting upset and cramping after I eat something, which then causes me to practically run to make to the bathroom in time. After visiting this forum and reading story after story about negative side effects, I can assure you I will not be taking Yasmin anymore. Isn't it amazing in the commercials you see on TV about Yasmin, you never hear any of these horror stories...wonder why?????

Hi all! I just began taking YAZ two weeks ago and things were fine up until two days ago. I started experiencing itching on several parts of my boy an last night, realized I had hives on my waist at my back, near my underarms and have serious itching all over the rest of my body including the palms of my hands. Please, please, please if anyone reads this an has had similar side effects, please let me know. Furthermore, I did not take the pill last night as I knew this could be the only thing causing these issues. Does anyone know the reprecution of stopping the pill mid month? Please let me know and thanks for your help!
