what is the effect of taking m2 tone for a month and then yasmine. Will this solve the problem of low menstral flows. ## can m2-tone and yamine be use at the same time to correct irregular menstruation and horminal imbalance? ## You should take whatever medications your doctor has instructed you to take. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, spotting, and PMS-like symptoms. However, how much you bleed during menstruation doesn't actually mean anything, it may vary every month. We are all different. Are you on any other medications?

I want to know more about it ## I LOVE Yasmin. I have been taking it for a long time. I have tried other BCP, but none work as well for me as this one. My gyno has me taking them continuously and I stop every 3 months and have a cycle, so I have a period 4 times a year which is WONDERFUL. I bloat a little bit, just when I stop to have it and also cramp, but its only 4 times a year! Hope this helps! ## Why do I have spotting after taking Yasmin pills? I'm not finished with my one pack of Yasmin yet and I'm so worried... I have 3 tablets of Yasmin left. I'm not pregnant so please give me advice.

Hi , I've just started using Oralcon from using Yasmin. Is there a big difference between the two ? Because I am worried it might have a different effect as it is cheaper ? ## I switched from Yasmin to oralcon. Is it safe to just change or will it effect me hormonally? I've taken a brand new cycle now for my new month and would also like to know if I must consume all of the white tablets then break or consume the red tablets as well? ## No, it works the same and you should not have a problem making a clean switch from one to the other. Shell, the red tablets do not have any active ingredients, they are just reminder pills to try to keep women in the habit for taking a pill every day, so you can skip them, if you wish, it would be just like having a break week where you don't...

Can i start taking yasmin on the sunday mark even if its not sunday? ## Yes, unless your doctor instructs otherwise, you can just make a clean switch from one to the other on the day you are due to start a new pack. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, spotting, and PMS-like symptoms. Are you on any other medications?

I want to switch from althea to yasmin when can I take my first pill? ## Hello, Janice! How are you? Unless you've missed pills, you should be able to just make a smooth switch, just stop taking one and start taking the other. It could be different if you've missed pills, or if your doctor has told you to do it differently for some reason. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I'm taking Daphne pills and I want to switch to Yasmin,is it okay? ## I'm taking Daphne pills and I want to switch to Yasmin,is it okay?and when can I take the first pills?? ## Im on my break week from taking Yasmin and Im on my first day of my period.

I'm currently on purbac antibiotic for my acne and it's been a month now but is it safe for me to use the contraceptive pill while I'm on the antibiotics ## Hello, Sanny! How are you? It isn't dangerous to take them both, but Purbac can reduce the efficacy of oral contraceptives, so you'll need to use another form of contraceptive, as long as your being treated with the Purbac. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Yasmin may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, breakthrough bleeding and PMS-like symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with?

I believe my wife using Yasmin is what caused her blood clot and eventually her death. Bayer use to imply Yasmin and Yaz were safer then all the other contraceptives. Now Bayer is saying Yasmin and Yaz are just as safe and the number of Adverse Events is no more or less then other contraceptives. I am so sorry for those who have lost a love one or suffered through the pain some of the Adverse Events might have caused them. I don’t think I have the right or the knowledge to stop anyone from taking any drug that’s been approved by the FDA but I think doctors should take more responsibility about informing their patients of the benefits and risks and what other options they might have to taking this one drug. They also need to inform them of what they ...

I got my tonsils out last tuesday (I live in Spain) and the doctor prescribed Paracetamol 1gm and Nolotil (Metamizole) 575mg to be taken ever 8 hours on alternating 8 hours. I have been taking Yasmin for a few years now with no problems. But, starting 2 days ago I noticed some spotting, today I put in a tampon to make sure of where the blood was coming from and it seems to be now a little more than spotting. I am wondering if this is an interacting with any of the medicine listed above or a combination of them, or if it is something I need to be worried about. Thank you. ## Hello, Ali! How are you? Spotting can occur with oral contraceptives, especially when you've undergone such stress and trauma, like your recent surgery. However, it would be best to consult your doctor to be cert...

I have been prescribed calvepen 666 mG for tonsillitis and am currently taking the contraceptive pill yasmin. My question is will the antibiotics interfere with the effectiveness of the pill? Do I need to use extra protection? ## Hello, Twinkletoes! How are you? Yes, this antibiotic may reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives, so you should use backup protection. The FDA lists other side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello, I've been taking oralcon for about two weeks now and worried about my weight. I go to gym 3times a week and I stopped taking slimmers as soon as I started using oralco.
