Question Problems with Yasmin?????

Hello,

This might sound a little starnge but has anyone suffered from leg cramps while taking Yasmin??? Possibly due to bad circulation??? I hate the BCP but my doctor has recommended I try it for at least 3 months (in the middle of first month now). Any thoughts anyone???

Thank you!!

Yasmin has 25 mg of Spironolactone in it. Spiro is a potassium sparing diaretic. Make sure you are drinking plenty of fluids. Dehydration will cause leg cramps. Try drinking more water and hopefully the leg cramps will go away.

Why else to you hate the BCP? Is it all BCP's in general or specifically Yasmin? I have been taking Yasmin since January and it has been awesome for me. I was kind of leary about taking a BCP to begin with, but Yasmin has been great. My extra hair is going away and my skin in a lot clearer. I had a little naseua at the beginning but after the first couple of weeks that went away and now I don't have any problems.
