To all of you women out there who are taking Yasmin....I was curious to know if you have lost weight while taking the med and if so how much. I just started taking Yasmin and I have read such mixed experieces from various people--just on the site alone and I am trying to be positive and hoping my body doesn't mind this BCP. Like I said....just curious.
I am only on day 3 so I have nothing really to report yet....

Not to poo poo the this bcp again but I will because for me it was aweful...I gained a totaly of 30 pounds while on it and that was only for about 3 months and I wasn't eating pizza and drinking beer either... You'll just have to wait and see what it does with your body. Ahh the waiting game - -

Same here, Yasmin was bad for me made me even more depressed and I gained weight. It wasn't until reading about Yasmin on this site that I decided to stop taking them and I will not take bcpills again. the only positive thing I can say is now that I have been off yasmin about 2 months I can tell that it helped with slowing down the hair growth in bad bad places. everyone is different so good luck on yasmin maybe it will work for you,keep us updated.
I was on Diane-35, which I believe is quite similar to Yasmin, and I found that I could not make even 1 pound budge while I was on it. But, everyone is different. I've heard of lots of women doing really well on these types of bcp's.
Looks like both of us are on the same boat, I'm on Day 2 of taking Yasmin.. so it's all waiting and seeing what's gonna happen. I was on Diane-35 for 3 months before my doc asked me to change to Yasmin. I didn't gain weight while I was on Diane-35 but I couldn't lose even one kg while on it!
I'm keeping my fingers crossed on Yasmine. Hope I'll have some good news to report after some time.
Good luck!

Hi I have been on Yasmin for a month exactly. I have had a very positive response to it. I have actually lost 4 pound, so far which surprised me because I sure haven't changed my eating habits!

I've been on Yasmine for only 3 days and I've noticed I feel really tired these days. Dunno whether it's the Yasmine or stress of school work doing it.

Sadly you may be like me. Normally the only two effects I have on the pill are breakthrough bleeding or low libido. However, on Yasmin, I have NEVER had such a feeling of exhaustion in my life. It's as if I couldn't move. I also had the breakthrough bleeding, the leg cramps, hot flashes and by the end of the month, extreme exhaustion, body aches and depression. Watch this pill -- for some people it works great, but for those for whom it's bad, it's a total disaster. I've been of Yasmin for the week now, and the aches are gone, I'm not exhausted, no hot flashes, no aches, no cramps. And I'm no longer tempted to quit my job so I can sit on my couch all day. I might even have the energy to raise my head to talk to you if you talk to me... :-)
To the rest of you, I was able to drop a few pounds, and I'm not even overweight any longer. But I'm weird -- I always lose weight when I'm on the pill. I think because it's regulating my hormones, my body behaves more normally and responds to diet and exercise.
Yasmin and the weight loss journey.....
