Yasmin causing changes in cycle Posted: 05-27-08 15:28pm
I'm just ending my first back of Yasmin,
so I'm on my sugar pills and started my
period yesterday. Without the pill, my
period is regular and pretty light, but
right now it's INSANELY heavy! And I've
had spotting every day since I started the
pills. Basically I just feel like I've
been on my period for a month. Is this a
normal side effect, and will it subside
once my body adjusts? I'm already anemic,
and I'm worried this excessive bleeding
will make it worse.
Anyone have suggestions / experiences to
share?

Hey girl. I started my first pack of
yasmin about 3 wks ago. I didnt have a
period for 6 months and my doctor put me
on it so i would start. i had horrible
side effects from it. extremely bad cramps
and moodiness, which could be in part to
not having it for so long, but i stopped
taking them 2 days prior to the white
pills and started the next day. i had
extremely heavy bleeding that lasted for 5
days. I've heard that yaz has some bad
side effects but like everything else, its
different for everyone. Most people as
well as my personal doctor say it takes 2
to 3 packets to get you on track. hope
this helps in some way.
