I started Ocella which is a generic of yasmin. I was on yasmin for a year about a year ago. I have since then had a baby and not been on anything. I felt like maybe the yasmin made me kinda tired and kept getting worse. I finally decided to try the ocella and now I am worried that it will make it harder for me to lose weight. I need to lose 15 pounds. I also have hypoglycemia and I am afraid its going to make that worse too. The only reason I am wanting to take it is becuase of ovulation pains I have for 3-4 days. I get bloated and gassy during this too. I dont know which is worse the pill side effects or the pain. I have had ultrasounds and nothing is abnormal they just show ovulation. I hate having such long ovulation pains though. I just dont know what to do I hate taking meds.

Have you considered any natural methods to help with the ovulation pain? If you don't like taking meds and ovulation pain is the only reason you want to be on bcps, I would try to look for supplements that help with your cycle. Maybe try drinking Raspberry Leaf tea on a regular basis.
