Yasmin and sexual appetite

One bad effect of Yasmin is low sex drive. It had already been scientifically proven that some pills can cause this. And sad to say Yasmin is one of them. I strongly suggest that you try Althea. It just cost around Php250. It seldom affect your moods. It also doesn't affect your weight. Although in my case, I craved for sweet stuffs more and loss appetite on other carbs. But overall, it's great. The libido wasn't affected, I'd say it even adds to your sexual appetite. It is actually very safe and reliable. Although I missed one day, I was still protected. So far it's the best pill I've encountered and it's well-commented by other people.

Ive only been taking this pill for appx. 3 weeks..... its my first bc pill...... ive noticed weight gain, ive recently noticed ive been in an extremely bad mood,... and i am naturally a light hearted upbeat person...... but my biggest concern is...... my loss in sex drive..... i naturally have a HUGE sexual appetite and it has withered down into a non existent state..... this pill SUCKS

My gynocologist had to put me on Yaz because I had had a Kenalog Injection for a slipped disk and after being injected with Kenalog I kept having menstrual periods....4 in a month a half! So she gave me Yaz, it seems to work so far, but this drug gives me side effects too. Has anyone experienced extreme tiredness? I seem to be tired non-stop even after having a lot of sleep. This wasn't listed as side effect on my prescription, but I thought this may be causing it. Since I started taking this 3 weeks ago I began to feel real depressed and angry for no reason at all. I just get these weird bouts of depression.

Well... let's see if anyone here can help us clear this mess out.

First I should mentioned that my girlfriend was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and did not get her period for over 18 months, which her MDs kept saying was normal(???!!!!) It was definitely not normal. I took her to an excellent OB/GYN and she did some tests on her and put her on loestrin fe with the 21 days of BC and 7 days of IRON tablets.

Her MD left the practice to teach... so she was left with no MD. In the meantime, About 2 years ago, my girlfriend started to experience heavy bloating, constant urinary tract infections, decreased interest in sex, soreness during sex, etc.

She went to see her MD and they kept telling her to use METRO GEL, I believe it's what it's called, and DIFLUCAN, etc. You name it, they gave it to her. She even got tested for ALL STDS and I did also to make sure I didn't have anything I would keep giving to her.

Anyway, her MD put her on YASMIN because he said it would help out with all these symptoms. Well her sexual appetite has diminished even more and now she has vaginal dryness.

The problem is that overall, this pill has done more good than it has done bad. But has anyone continued taking the pills but been treated for teh vaginal dryness?

Please get back to me.

Thanks!
