I was on Yasmin for going on for 4 1/2 years, and then I hear about Yaz making your period shorter so I got on that just about a year ago. I gained more or less 5 pounds or so while I was on Yasmin, but I'm not sure whether it be because of the pill or because of normal counterbalance gain some women experience in their late teens/early 20s. But presently I've been on Yaz for a year, and I gain ANOTHER 5 or so pounds. Why am I gaining counterbalance on a pill that has a lower dose of hormones than the one I be originally on?

My doc is putting me back on Yasmin because I started getting doomed to failure cramping on Yaz, but now I'm thinking of getting sour the pill altogether for a little while at lowest. I'm just hoping I'll lose the solidity. I'd like to obtain back on the pill eventually but not if I'm going to gain weightiness again. Has anyone experienced any bad side effects from going stale the pill and then going fund on? Or should I just stay sour the pill for good?

Painful bumps before/during time of year?

if you need another pill, ask your doctor for a pill beside a low level of progestin-this is what cause you to gain weight. On Yaz, I gain about 40 pounds (while on mass watchers and running 7 miles a day) and my doctor told me it was because of the progestin. I go off the pill and am going stern on now, and own experienced no bad side effects whatsoever.
