Anyone felt like this before! so i had a baby 4mnths ago...Ive started back on yasmin for 2mnths now. since then Ive had my periods, Just finish my 2nd period on friday. For the past two weeks Ive been feeling sick. It started out with just headaches, then the increased appetite(i get hungry very quick). Then the nasuea started..and Im alwasyyy tired, My breast seems bigger but they dont hurt....I even went to the extent of taking TWO pregnancy Test...which is says im not! could it be the pill making me feel so so horrible or some type of sickness....if it goes on much longer Im gonna get it checked.

I was on yasmin for Two years before becoming pregnant...and ive never felt this way..EXCEPT the nasuea

If its the pill! How long should this last

Yep, this is most likely from the pill.

Side effects can last around 3 months, if they don't stop by then or become too unbearable then you should speak with a doctor to switch to a different pill with a different dosage.

You got your period, so you're likely not pregnant.

maddie is right...when i first started yaz i felt absolutely terrible and i knew it was the pill..but it said it'd take 2-3 packs for all symptoms to subside..so i put up with it...by the time I'd finished my 3rd pack the headaches dizziness and nausea had stopped

Personally, I don't care for Yasmin. I had those side effects also.

Keep going for a while. Next time you are in with the doc, talk about your experiences and see if there are any other B.C.'s that are better for you.

I have had the same symptoms not only from Yaz but from every pill I've ever taken. I had paragaurd inserted a few months go and so far.....hubby and I have been so happy! I love the lack of hormones.....he loves the no condom factor!
