Question about Yasmin BC

I just started taking the birh control pill Yasmin. I am feeling REALLY lethargic and kind of crabby. I have only been on it for 3 days. Does anyone know if this will go away? If it doesn't, is there another BC pill you would recommend? Thank you!

If you were on it for one month and had sex without protection...that's why you got pregnant. It's best to wait at least one full cycle before relying on the pill. It's not the pill that made you pregnant, that was just user error. Unless of course you also used a condom, and in that case...it was miracle baby. :)

That's so funny...because that is what I am taking.  I've been on it for 5 years, minus the month I tried Yasmin.

I'm taking Loestrin24 and I like it alot. My period last for 3 days and it's very light. I love it before my period would last for a week and it was very heavy. If you are having trouble with yasmin then I would try loestrin24. Have a good day and I hope you get your answer.

I was prescribed Yasmin.  I only took it for a month and changed back to my old b/c.  But while on Yasmin, I noticed immediately I had more energy and was ALWAYS "in the mood".  So, it just goes to show that every woman is different.  I loved Yasmin because of the energy and everything, but it made me have really bad cramps and MAJOR mood swings, so I had to switch back, for the sake of my husband, who was catching every mood swing.  Hope you find your answers soon!
