Question about Yasmin
| Thu, 09-23-2004 - 10:28am |
Hi All,
I have a quick question. My OB put me on Yasmin to stop the btb that I was having; it did. But now my periods are unbelievably heavy and last seven days or more. She told me that Yasmin would make them lighter and less crampy, but it hasn't. I have been on it for two months now. Does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone else had this on Yasmin?
Thanks for your advice.
Laura

It can take 3 or 4 or perhaps a few more cycles to see how your period on a particular pill will stabilize out. If I were you I'd give it another couple of cycles to see if all your periods will be heavy. Let us know how you're doing, ok?
Good luck,
Jill
Thanks again,
Laura
Thank you!
good luck with you laurabee24!
I did notice some mood swings, but only during the week of my period. I was a little irritable and cried some. It wasn't awful, though. I'm much better now that my period is over. It may just take some time for your body to adjust to the hormones. I'm hoping that after this month, my flow tapers off some. This month my period went from 8 days to 5, so that's good.
Good luck, piggy71! Let me know how you are doing!
Another question for those on Yasmin: does this pill make you tired throughout the day? I've noticed that ever since being on it. When I was on mircette i was never tired.
