Avatar f tn I was wondering if anyone can advise or has had similar affects. I have come off Yasmin in June as I wanted to have a rest and give my body a chance to have natural periods again. I had a period 5 weeks after then 4 week then at 3 weeks after and waiting to see what happens this month. I know it will take a while to average out but I have not really had any other symptoms apart from being bloated.
Avatar n tn i have been off Yasmin pill for 3 months now (i was on it for a few years!!) so far no periods and hair loss, how long will this go on for?
Avatar f tn Hi, it depends on the treatment I guess, but I don't think you should expect any weight gain. Metformin will help with weight loss - I don't have any weight to shed, but Met really helps with appetite and maintainance. I also find Yasmin (BCP) harmless in this respect: I gain weight very easily usually and struggle to maintain it off, but Yasmin never caused any problems in this respect, I'd say on the contrary.
Avatar n tn Hun, Get a different doc, you know, they are just ppl, and, as ppl, some are *sses, and some are not, Please have them do thyroid check!! Thyroid problems will cause depression, weight gain (or loss) as well as HAIR LOSS, i had a circular patch oh top of my head, and doc decided to check my thyroid, now i on synthroid, and hair grew back, emotions under control..
Avatar f tn im coming off prozac and intend to come off anything except lithium. Im afraid that i will have severe mood swings when i do this but i need to get my life back, i sleep most of the day because of fatigue and i need to lose weight! any advice please? be well.
5121963 tn?1363905257 Hello! I had endometriosis, cysts, tumor and blood thickening on my right ovary and and it was removed during laparoscopy 8 years ago. I had smaller problems with my left ovary, so after the lap and in the next 5 years I was on YASMIN pills for stopping the endo from growing. After these 5 years I had a punctuation done, because one of the cysts became bigger and after that I was on ZOLADEX shots for six months (in a condition of menopause - awful side effects!!!).
704655 tn?1228685706 I have also joined a weight loss program in California that incorporates chromium picolinate and vitamin b12 to aid in the weight loss process, along with a lean protein, minimal carb and minimal fruit diet. I lost 9 1/2 pounds my first 2 weeks. I would suggest Yasmin and Vaniqa(prescription cream to slow the hair growth). Much success to you, young lady. I am so glad that you were diagnosed so early on. God Bless!

1019152 tn?1336074292 Just wondering if anybody has taken syeda for birth control,and if you experienced any unwanted side effects.Nausea,weight loss/gain?My daughter is now taking this,and wanted to know about any side effects that anybody has experienced .
Avatar f tn So I hear (and I have also read) that yasmin is AWESOME for women with PCOS.. Any comments? I am about to switch from alesse to yasmin but I am nervous because there have been many birth control pills that give me uncontrollable mood swings, anxiety and depression. Alesse has been okay for me, not the best, but ok. Does anyone else experience this when they take birth control pills? I think that it is related very closely to PCOS.
Avatar f tn I have been on Yasmin for 2 months now, I was on YAZ over a year prior. In these two months, I have experienced depression that was never present before, I'm more tired and somedays don't want to get out of bed, my breast are severly tender, my breathing feels off somedays, I'm gaining weight and often feel blotted, I'm more anxious than usual (which is not like me) and I have acne now on my face, neck and back. I've done a 180 in 2 mths.
957923 tn?1246732553 I take Inderal LA 120mg 1x a day and I also take bcp (Yasmin) and Metformin 500mg 2x for weight loss. My doctor knew I was on Inderal LA and said it was fine. Talk to your doctor about getting on Metformin. It works great and with that I've lost 60 + lbs with it. I have all the symptoms that you have too, except I don't have high blood pressure. I wouldn't consider the lap band surgery (only as a last resort).
Avatar f tn I came off the pill yasmin a year ago and I haven't had a period since, though I have put on a little it of weight and my skin has become more oily but no period as yet. I went to see the doctor who did some blood tests but they came back saying that everything was ok and the doctor didn't need to see me again. Why have a not had a period in a year?
Avatar f tn YOU DO NOT WANNA TAKE YASMIN READ MY POST COMMENT THING ABOUT YASMIN THEY HAVE TAKEN ME OFF THIS PILL BECUZ IT CAUSES ORGAN PROBLEMS AND ITS LIFE THREATNING!!! DOOOOOOOOOOO NOTTTTTTTTTTT TAKE YASMIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar f tn My migraines started about when puberty kicked in. Way back then (I'm 43) if you had a really bad headache and threw up, you had a "virus." Well at about 18 we finally knew they were migraines, because of the aura (visual disturbances, numbness in hands/face) before the pain would kick in. That was also the age I first tried birth control pills. I had other triggers like stress, fluorescent lights, flickering lights, etc.
Avatar f tn I even amped up my cardio and weight training but nothing is coming off. I know I should be thankful nothing has come back but I am in a hole. I want to lose the extra 30 pounds to get to a healthy weight but my body is not having it. I need some advice on getting back on track to lose the extra poundage.
Avatar m tn I gained 30 lbs when I was on it.Since I've been off I've lost 19,21 more to go.I lost my motivation when I was on it.Now since I've been off for 8 months it's coming back.
Avatar n tn i took yasmin for nearly one year then stopped(my periods were regular while taking yasmin), got pregnant after 2months of stopping yasmin, but unfortunately it was ectopic and so i lost it. i would advice you to be careful once you stop yasmin. Also i was taking caltrate(vitaminD+calcium) tablets once a day.
Avatar n tn I had some really odd symptoms with Yasmin and begged my dr to take me off of it, since then I was on Apri, which is just generic desogen. Initally did much better on this one so I'm not sure how yaz/yasmin works but I can say my withdrawal bleed "period" got way longer on it- I used to only bleed for 4 days on Aleese, then gradually this increased and due to weight gain and water retention switched to Yasmin...
Avatar n tn I too am on Yasmin, but never had any problems while taking them. I was told that Yasmin bc is the best choice given to those with acne problems and pcos. It's a mild dose of bc. Try to give yourself 3 months to regulate it in your body. Consult your doctor if you have serious side affects. Are you taking any other meds for your pcos? I'm also on Metformin for weight issues. I started my journey in September 2008 at 333lbs and I am now at 272lbs.
Avatar f tn I've been on it for about 3 1/2 yrs, and got pregnet within the first year I was on it. My highest dose was 80mgs and never had a weight problem, my highest weight was 135-140. At nine months preg. I was up to 265mgs and was all belly and gained 28pnds. After I had her I blew up to 204pnds and ever since then I've been coming down. My Daughter will be 2yrs old May 15th. I lost about 15pnds last summer, and I've been doing everything, to lose it.

Avatar n tn m ready, is there an alternative pill to birth control that will combat the hair loss. It is the yasmin birth control that is stopping my hair from falling out and helped regrow hair. So I was wondering if there is medication that contains whichever ingredients are contained in birth control that has aided in my hair regrowth that I could take so that I can go off the pill when I'm ready to get pregnant and not have my hair fall out again.
Avatar f tn Hello!! I haven't been on here in a while!! I totally went off Yasmin and it is only now that I'm actually starting to feel better!! I just finished my pack and never got a new one? See you posted this in Dec. How you doing?
