Common Questions and Answers about Yasmin 28 and weight gain

Avatar f tn 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. Spironolactone which is used to treat hirsutism or hair loss is a diuretic, and therefore it will actually help you not to retain water (I have this problem). These are the most common approaches and none of these will lead to weight gain.
704655 tn?1228685706 ll be able to see the fuzziness of the hair around your face. If the PCOS has made you gain weight already, a low carb diet can help you lose weight and control the other symptoms that come with PCOS. It's hard, but it helps. Good luck.

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!!!).
869854 tn?1239978206 I feel hopeless so she mentioned that studies have shown the pill and also anxiety and depression meds can help the hormonal changes and regulate my moods and newly changing menstural cycle. I was so looking forward to turning 40 up until 5 months ago when my mood just shifted.
Avatar n tn t know what may cause her to bleed so much so often. What other symptoms does she have? Does she have excessive hair growth? Weight gain? Anything else that might indicate PCOS? Have the doctor see her so that they can run some tests, maybe an ultrasound or something. Good luck, honey.
Avatar n tn 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...well after a year on that I was bleeding for 8 to 9 days (still bleeding even while taking the 'active' pills) also I started getting cramps and what not and my dr kept saying that should not be happening since you only have a withdrawal bleed...
706214 tn?1244523049 You should see the doctor and ask him what kind of medication he can put you on that would help with the symptoms and weight gain. For me, what has worked in the past is a low carbohydrate diet and exercise. Having PCOS does make you gain weight, but at the same time, if you lose the weight (I know it's hard) it helps you start ovulating again and control the other symptoms.
Avatar f tn I am now day 14 on the pills and been taking it very regularly at around the same time everyday. I am constantly feeling tender nipples, bloating, slight weight gain and now mild cramps in lower belly right side. I assume its due to ovulation prevention from the pills?
2153669 tn?1336580247 Are you on a medication for hypothyroidism? Without reference ranges for your blood test results, we have no idea whether or not they are normal. We particularly need the reference range for the FT4, since that and TSH are the thyroid tests done. Usually, people on thyroid medication gain weight, because they need an adjustment in their medication. Is weight gain your only symptom?
Avatar f tn Before this I was on the depo shot. But it was causing me to gain weight. So my doctor switched me. And so i dont know the side effects very well for this pill. But i did hear that this pill was supposed to "regulate" your period. Thats why Im asking(: Any answers are very much appreciated!
Avatar f tn do i have to wait for the hormones to clear and get regular periods be fore i can calculate or if theres a pill that can help me not gain weight please help since i have used the mirena coil which my body rejected and was very painful too.

Avatar f tn Im 28 weeks and ive gained 6.
Avatar f tn The baby could be big enough to not have room, and I wouldn't worry about the weight gain because you will gain all of the weight in the last few weeks. Have you done kick counts? They say that you are supposed to feel like 10 kicks/movements in 2 hours.
Avatar f tn I also normally only gain weight in my butt but now have back fat and love handles. I normally do not gain weight in my stomach and it is so bloated, I look pregnant even with sucking it in. I truly feel the most disgusting ever! I hope that the 8 pounds comes off easily after stopping the Yaz. I decided to take a pill break and hope things revert to normal. The only postitive aspect of Yaz for me was that my skin looks great. It did not help with my fatigue.
Avatar f tn I've gained 26 and am 28 weeks. I think it's fine and right on track and so does my Dr.
Avatar f tn I try to eat a lot of salad and fruits but occasionally have junk food. Is this weight gain normal and on track?? Help!
6396087 tn?1399167632 Im 28 weeks and have gained 32 pounds!
Avatar f tn Hello, You take all 28 Yasmin pills (the whole pack) and than you take a break of 8 days without Yasmin. In that 8 days you should get your period. On the 8th day you start the new pack of Yasmin. And every time the same. That's the process. When you want to end taking them for good you just stop taking them or consult a doctor if they are prescribed like some kind of therapy. Take care!
