Do Slimming Pills Effect the Pill?!
Posted: 06-20-05 09:34am

I know this sounds bad but I recently have been taking slimming pills to help me kick start to lose a couple of pounds.

Ive been on the pill now (yasmine) for 2 months and I was wondering if you knew if slimming pills can effect the pill?

I know your boobs are supposed to get bigger on the pill, but this takes the buiscuit! (not that i'm complaining) ive gone up a full cup in the space of a week and they are very sore to touch (cant lie on my belly). Ive also been feeling a little 'icky' but I was putting that down to the slimming pills. Then one of my colleagues suggested that the slimming pill could effect the contraceptive pill.


Does any one know?

The slimming pills have no lower efficiency rate than any other pills. As far as your symptoms(breasts ect.) those should die down in a couple of months. You are just as protected on yasmin as any other type of birth control.
