I've noticed a difference in myself over
the past several months and it isn't good.
I assumed my attitude derived from the
divorce I went through last year. Since
the divorce, I’ve been taking Yasmin.
It seems to work well, I mean better than
the other BC pills I've tried. I don't
feel bloated and hot all the time. I do
however feel hostile. I'm not sure that's
the right word to use, but I am always
moody. For the most part I'm just down
right mean especially to my boyfriend. It
seems that I can keep from being mean to
my employees, so I guess that's a good
thing. I feel like I'm going crazy at
times. I feel like it's too much to take
and I can't go on like this. That isn't
the only side effect that I've noticed. I
have cramps in my legs all the time like
charlie horses. I also have no desire to
have sex. The sex thing just started
recently. After reading some forums from
people on line, I guess I'm not the only
one with these issues. I think I will
stop taking Yasmin. Anyone have any
suggestions on alternative BC?

Try just switching to a different pill,
did any work better for you in the past?
What didn't you like about the others that
you've used? Or check out the sticky on
this forum about birth control. There are
lots of options.
