I recently switche from Yasmin to Yaz. I was on Yasmin for 7 months. I didn't mind it that much. I loved the fact that it cleared up my acne. I was having so many problems with it and it was actually because of my acne that I found out I had PCOS. Anyway yasmin really helped with that now I just have some scaring. Yasmin also made me gain some weight though only about 3-5lbs. It made my breast bigger also which might explain the weight gain. And it made me more emotional, I would cry over anything. And I had some mood swings.

So when I went home for Dec I told my gyno about the weight gain and she was like well it shouldnt have caused that blah blah so decided to have me try Yaz. Im just as emotional with Yaz I still cry over anything and ive been becoming more depressed and I have anxiety which I forgot to mention Yasmin gave me awful anxiety. I have lost the weight but my breast I think have stayed the same size. My skin is breaking out more now and Ive had break through bleeding but it is only my first month on Yaz. The derpession is getting pretty bad thoughbut I dont want to stop taking it because I dont want my skin to break out again like it did before BC.
