Yasmin - Birth Control Message Board

Hello. Is anyone on Yasmin? I went off the pill a few years ago when I had my first MS episode, because we didn't know what was happening. I never went back on. Today I went for a follow up appt. to alert my dermatologist that my face still breaks out pretty bad around "that time" of the month & she recommended I go on Yasmin if it was ok with my neuro. She says fine, but I wanted to get some opinions on it first...Thanks !

I'm not that sure but I've read the estrogen in Yasmin can control your break outs.

It was great for my complexion but I hated Yasmin. Made me horribly depressed and zapped my sex drive to non-existent.

oh great. I certainly don't need anything to zap my sex drive or make me more depressed. Thanks for the info !
