I love it. I was on it a few years ago and had a bumpy ride (vowed never to try Yasmin again!), but this time around it seems to be working better for me. I have much better skin, my hair is glossy and thick where I want it to be, I am losing weight and my periods are incredibly short and light. The first 3 months were a bit tough for me, acne-wise and also with some cramps, BUT I would urge you to persevere! I am on my 5th month and feel more like myself than I have in ages. Also I don't get bad headaches like I seemed to on other pills.
The drospirenone is the only progestogen that is really similar to natural progesterone, which is why side effects *can* be less serious and annoying.
The usual side effects may occur when you first start it - I had really sore boobs (not now) and a few horrible spots (rarely now), plus some random nausea, like in the middle of the night, but nothing happened. I stuck with it and I am glad now.
Hope this helps. |
