This is my first month on Yasmin per the suggestion of my dermatologist due to my acne I've been having. Before this, I was on loestrin for 5+ years. I know the loestrin is the lowest does and I did great with it, except for the acne. I didn't really have cramps and my cycle usually started on Tuesday or Wednesday and by Friday it was gone. With Yasmin, I had major cramps, HEAVY bleeding (including passing clots) and today is day 6 and it's still here...just now starting to ease up. Because of this, this past Sunday, I went back to the loestrin. I can find face cream to help my acne...it's not worth cramps, and long periods, not to mention I was a major WITCH (with a B). Was this normal with the first month, or is this normal throughout using Yasmin. Before loestrin 5 years ago I was on Alysse (sp?) and when I switched from that to loestrin I didn't have these kind of problems. Just curious what everyone else's experience was. Thanks
