yasmin users please reply

I have been on demulen (generic name zovia 35) for several years, at first it worked great but lately my face has been super greasy and I have had more problems with acne. My derm recommended changing to yasmin. Any luck with yasmin for acne? Any problems. Will I break out initially. Any problems with just switching right away?

i have been on Yasmin for almost 2 years. I am pretty much in your situation. I'm going to my dermatologist soon to find a different pill that might help my skin. Yasmin helped a while ago but not anymore. I always break out the week before my period really bad. However, I know a lot of people have had success with Yasmin so it's worth a try. Sounds like we need to try swapping brands!!

I have been on Yasmin for 2 months and 1 week. I don't know if it's helping my skin or not. Alesse was doing better than this! But most people say it really starts to help in the 4th and 5th month. I hope this is true! Does anyone know how long it does take to see improvement??

This is my 4th month on Yasmin; I think it is helping, although I just got thru a break out that was as bad as ever. I'm going to hang in there for 6 months at least. No really bad side effects -- I lost 7 pounds, but I wasn't looking to lose weight. I think the spiro-like ingredient is a diuretic, and the weight just melted off of me. Slight headache in the beginning, a little moody and a lowered sex drive, but all those things have improved after my body got used to it. I would recommend it, it seems I read everywhere that Yasmin is great for acne... Let's hope
