Default Weight loss on Yasmin...Weight gain on Yaz?

I was on Yasmin about two years ago and lost weight. I just started taking Yaz this month and suspect that I have gained weight (clothes fitting very tight). I was wondering if any current Yaz users have noticed the same thing??

I was on Yasmin for several years, and just started Yaz 2 weeks ago. I have not had weight gain, but then again, I am actively trying to lose weight. I can't really tell whether its the Wellbutrin or Yaz, but something has killed my appetite (not complaining!!!)

I have noticed that my appetite has drastically decreased also!! You would think my clothes would *not* be tight if I am not eating as much.....

I had weight gain with yasmin. Then I have a friend who had no weight gain w/ yasmin - go figure! I had to get off of yasmin though. I also had lots of migraines on yasmin - so now I'm on a BCP with a lower dosage

Maybe it's not weight gain, but water retention?
I know when I started Tri-Cyclen*lo, I had a few days at the beginning where I had 'weight gain'. Then a few days later, stepped on the scale and gone gone gone!

I'm in the proccess of finding more about Yasmin, so that's why I'm here, hoping I could be of help!
