I just wanted to add my Yasmin stroy. I started it when I had my youngest who is almost 7 yo. I took it so I would only get 4 AFs a year - continuously for three months and then off for a week, etc. At first I was ok, then I started having breakthrough bleeding which is kind of common when doing the pills like that. About three years ago I started getting pain in my lower right abdomen that got worse about 3 months ago. I had an US and they found uterine fibroids and an enlarged liver. I have had fibroids in the past though - long before I started the Yasmin so I don't really think that the Yasmin caused that. But I started thinking back to when I started it and actually I was dx with post partum depression and put on Zoloft. I am wondering now if it was actually the Yasmin. Interesting...I do know that it seriously effected my libido! I have been off it since July 4th and it has been wild! Versus at least 3 years with nothing. Just interesting...
