Yasmin and headaches

Hello everyone,

I have been taking Yasmin now for about 9 months and have been tracking moderate to severe headaches for the last four. The last week of my pills (the placebo week) I get horrible headaches that range from low dull throbs to nearly debilitating. Has anone else had this kind of experience with Yasmin?

Thanks,

Dawn Marie

Hi there,

I have been taking Yasmin for about 1.5 months-- the placebo week the first month, I had the same thing happen. I used to get headaches during the week of my period also, but they def. were not nearly as bad. I think it's due to the lack of hormones in our bodies. Did you experience an increased breast size? My chest went up about 3/4 a cup, then the placebo week it drastically shrunk until the beg. of 2nd week of 2nd month.

I took Yasmin for about 9 months and never experienced any headaches. I got taken off it last week because my blood pressure is high.
