Angry Yasmin help, please?

I just started Yasmine 11 days ago. Since the beginning I've been quite nauseous, and had some cramping, but no period. I figured it would go away, and I can deal with that.

But, for the past 2 days I've been depressed, and having panic attacks again. Has anyone noticed big hormonal changes? I haven't been on BC in 7 years, and I know I have very low female hormones naturally.

Any advice would be wonderful. I hate to stop this when it will help, I hope. But, I can't deal with the panic and depression..

I take Lexapro for depression already, and Klonopin as needed for anxiety! Thanks again!

Sorry to hear you are having so many probelms on Yasmin. I started taking it over 2 years ago, and I don't recall if I had that many problems because of Yasmin. I started Yasmin and Metformin around the same time, and I know I felt really tired, weak-kneed, nauseated, etc. I know I felt blue, but I don't remember being that depressed and having panic attacks. But was this the Yasmin or Met? Who knows...

You shouldn't start your period until the last week (the 4th week) of your pack. That's the sugar pill week and thats when your period should come on. So I wouldn't worry about that just yet... You're only 11 days into a 28 day pack right?

Sorry again. I know this stuff can be a pain and just yet another thing you have to deal with, but please hang in there...

Thanks so much. Yeah, almost half way through the pack now actually. I wondered if you start on the first white pill or mid. I know if it follows a normal 28 day cycle it would be during the latter part of the white pills. Just curious

Hi again. Yeah I usually start my period within the last three days of the white pills in the last week. It is important to take *all* of the pills, too. And don't skip days in between... Once you take all 28 days, you start a new pack. Hope I helped.
