I went to my doctor to get a new pill last July. I was prescribed Yasmin, and almost immediately, noticed migraines, a decreased sex drive, nausea and bloating, but assumed that had to do with my new career, and the stress of school. My employment no longer causes me stress, and I've graduated, but am still feeling these same symptoms. When I am not taking the pills for 7 days, I drop in weight and feel fantastic, but as soon as I start the next cycle of pills, I gain 4-5 pounds with the first pill I take, and it increases throughout the month, yet my appetite is decreased. My skin has been getting worse with each month, and my periods have started to be pushed back later and later in my cycle, to the point where I now start my period the same day I start a new pack of pills (it used to be only two days after I finished a pack).
