Although I don't take Yasmin, those symptoms can occur.

It seems unlikely to me that BC pills would cause a mental disorder like anxiety. Personally, I've been taking Yasmin ever since it came on the market & it's given me no probs at all. I do suffer from anxiety, but I always have, the BC doesn't do anything to provoke it. Anxiety & chest pains commonly go hand-in-hand. It's unlikely to be related to the pill. *However* as you probably know, if you are 35 or older or you smoke, you do have a greater chance of cardiovascular defects from oral contraceptives.

I'd talk to a doctor if I were you. The chest pains you experienced are more likely the manifestation of an anxiety disorder or a panic attack than a dirrect effect of the pill.

Actually, anxiety can be a side-effect of BC pills. I had a horrible experiance on Ortho 777, and had to get off of it. The anxiety was unbearable, I was up all night wanting to go to the Emergency Room. I just could not get a clear thought in my head. Any fluctuations in hormone levels could potentially cause anxiety because your body can tell something is "different" and your mind can run wild...

Thank you....
I have stopped the Yasmin. I called the pharmacy and they said to stop it immediately. So I did. That pill was not good for me at all. I have really not felt well on it from the beginning.

I havent taken Yasmin but I had horrible anxiety while taking Ortho tri-cyclen lo. i got off it and right away noticed a difference. :)

I had terrible anxiety and moodiness on Ortho Tri Lo took. I only took it three weeks and stopped. I don't trust ANY of the pills. I'm not taking them again.

My daughter has just gotten off of the yasmin, She had terriable acne with this now after two week her skin is clearing up. she too experience chest pains with this medication,
