Yasmin?

[Sugarmag]

anyone have any experience with yasmin? Have been on Dianette for contraception and skin probs but will need to come off it very soon and am looking for an alternative. Does anyone even know if it's available in the UK?

Yes Yasmin is available in the uk, I was on it once, but I had to come off it as it gave me bad migraines, but, saying that I think there are some mumsnetters who are ok with it.

hmmm, migraines could be a problem. Have had trouble off and on with migraine-like headaches. thanks for the feedback.

All my friends on Yasmin love it.

I am on the ortho evra patch and I would consider that, its the same hormones as the pill, but you just wear a patch a week for 3 weeks and then have a week off. Less remembering and wasier when you are away overnight, more reliable as well because there is much less user error. I am very happy with it.
