I went on Yasmin to try and control my prolonged periods. I committed to giving it 3 months but could not tolerate it any longer. Although the prolonged periods stopped, I got breakthrough bleeding / spotting every month. I also had extremely bad head aches for weeks at a time and felt really low. I had a few major dizzy spells where I’d completely lose my balance too which I can’t say for sure was the pill, but the other side effects definitely were. I even at times had intense increased urination where I would need to go for a wee every ten minutes (no exaggeration). I really wanted this pill to work after hearing good things about it and if I could’ve given it longer to settle I would’ve but I couldn’t tolerate the side effects any more.

This is by far the best contraceptive I've tried - before I tried rigevidon and gedarel 20/150, and they both gave me a very low mood almost instantly after I started taking them. Meanwhile my mood has felt very level and similar to normal on Yasmin. My skin is pretty much the same and my periods are slightly lighter, which is a bonus. I have noticed a lower sex drive but I am willing to take this side effect over the low mood with the other pills! This also could be due to other factors. I am glad I tried this pill and wasn't put off by the other ones I tried, as it seems to work well for me so far.

First one I have used and still on it. I like it. Got it prescribed to reduce hormonal acne. Went on it at the same time as a quite heavy antibiotic cure, which made me quite nauseous, but other than that it has been pretty good. Struggled a bit with anxiety, which I haven’t prior to starting the pill, but that got better after a few months.
