Hangingin-I still take Yasmin and i am overall happy with it.My skin is much clearer now and my symptoms are less severe then they were before the pill.It took so long for things to get better for me.Every month they get a little better,although my migraines have been more frequent lately.I have been under a lot of stress that contributes to the problem.I'm so glad that Yasmin has been a good experience for you so far.I almost switched a few times hoping for quiker improvements,but my doctor said that Yasmin is one of the best contraceptive pills available and he suggested that i stay on it.My hair has been a huge improvement.I was losing a ton more hair before i went on Yasmin.I still find my hair on the bathroom floor everyday,but not nearly as much.

To all-I had to be on Yasmin for a long time before i really got the benefit.I started on it in September and it took a good 4 months before i really saw an improvement.I only had diarrhea for the first week on Yasmin.I was really messed up before i started on Yasmin,so it may not take as long for everyone.I only had a period for one day a month before i started on Yasmin and i had severe pain for a week with migraines.I was a mess!I still have pain,but at least i can sleep at night now and my periods are normal flow now.Bc pills are trial and error and sometimes it takes a few different brands before you find the right one.It took about 5 months for Yasmin to really clear up my skin because i had acne before the pill and i lost 3 lbs on Yasmin.I hope some of this info helps someone.Yasmin is not a miracle pill that will get rid of IBS.It may help with period pain and help balance the hormones.If you are getting a lot of migraines on the pill and you didn't have them before the pill,you should consider switching.I get migraines eather way,but not as bad since i'm on the pill.Good luck with whatever you do!-Wendi- :love:
