stopping pill and restarting...
| Thu, 03-25-2004 - 6:19pm |
I started Yasmin a year ago and decided to stop it for just a month to see if my chronic yeast infections (which occurred about 6 months after I started the pill) were due to Yasmin. I saw my doctor and she said that it maybe due to my constant tampon use (while on menses of course). I want to restart it again and was wondering if I will have the same side effects that I initially had when I started Yasmin (I know, I should have asked my doctor, but it slipped my mind). I was wanting to see if anyone has experienced such an event of stopping and starting the pill within a month. Thanks so much!

I think you will probably experience the same side effects you did initially when you start Yasmin again. OCs can contribute to yeast infections. If that’s the case you might want to try a pill with less estrogen.
Good luck.
