Why are you switching? My Dr. Switched me to yasmin from ortho lo because my hair has been falling out bad. There has been no diff. In side effects, but hair is still falling out and I am on day 6

I am no Dr. But my cousin's hair used to fall out a lot and she was not on b/c the Dr. Finally said it was her nerves, my aunt(my cousin's mom) can never talk normally, always has to yell, my cousin finally moved out, away from her mom and her hair stopped falling out.
Good luck,
sincerely,
sandy

My hair is fine... Im switching because my mom works at a doctors office sometimes and she usually just snags little samples of the ortho for me so we dont have to pay the $40 a month for them. One of her co-workers said that yasmin was pretty much exactly the same so my mom took some of those. I know that all pills are basically the same, but I was just wondering, mostly, about how it will affect my period and such, because I love how light and regular my period is with ortho. Thats about it. Thanks!

I had no problems with yasmine.It has a little testosterone in it,so you might find an increase in your sex drive.That was why my doc put me on it.I had no desire.That helped.I have never been on any of the tri-phasal pills,so I can't help you there.Good luck.Patty

Thanks patty! :d

One more thing... Whats the flow like on yasmin?
