Just wondered if there was more feedback on the progress of being on Yasmin.I've been on it for 2 months and I've had my ups and downs so I'm not sure if its the Yasmin or not. Overall I think I am better off with it. It helps with gas a bit and helps me sleep, which is something I couldnt do before.Most importantly, my periods are MUCH less painless, even bearable and better than days I dont have a period ... that's pretty close to a miracle. For years I have been paralyzed with pain for 4 days, now its totally bearable. I cant wait to see how it feels after 6 months.I'm still real constipated though, so in that area it hasnt made much difference and overall pain is still bad, but at least my periods are predictable within the day and I know I will survive it.

Any updates from anyone?

This time around I am having the worst pain and constipation imaginable.My last period was very different, much lighter, but the pain and bloating pretty bad. The worst thing, which I think contributed to my stomach pain was having the most severe headaches and migraines and having to take meds for it, as all meds hurt my stomach so much. I just could not get rid of the headaches for a whole week, I am still recovering and my stomach is really bad.I started on Yasmin again after taking the placebo's and this time its not helping with the gas problem like it did last time.I dont know whether to carry on or not, this bloating and headaches is driving me nuts. Also constipation real bad. Going to see a surgeon on Friday, cant take it anymore

I'll keep you posted. Please write soon with any updates.

Hope you continue seeing good results.I have just been diagnozed with colonic inertia and will be having surgery real soon.I dont understand why Yasmin is causing more PMS symptoms for me like more constipation, pain, bloating, painful breasts, increased hunger, severe headaches when stopping etc.The only good thing is that my period day is predictable which I think may be important when having surgery, but am afraid of clots.
