I am going to start Yasmin birth control pills... anybody taking these and having side effects?


Question:
I am switching from ortho tri cyclen lo and am mostly concerned about losing scalp hair. My hair has been thinning on top for a couple of years and I don't want to lose any more. I heard that b/c pills or hormones can make you lose hair. I am very nervous. Any info will help tremendously! Thanks !!

Answers:
I took Yasmin for 4 years and never had any hair loss. Sometimes if you stop for a month and then start back up you can get pretty nauseous. Other than that it was a great pill.
i didnt have hair loss problems but it caused major mood swings.
Hope this helps with your decision.

All birth control pills can cause side effects, but these side effects are usually mild and disappear after the first few months of use. Serious side effects do not occur very often. In clinical studies, women taking YASMIN® experienced side effects similar in amount and severity to those experienced by women taking other pills.

I dont think that your hair loss is due to the pill.

Some birth control pills contain ingredients that act similarly to hormones called androgens, and these can cause hair growth or acne.
I took yasmin 3 years ago for about 2 years. It really messed me up. I would not recommend anyone take BC because it screws your hormones up and when you stop taking them you remain messed up. Yasmin will probably mess it up even more. You should be nervous if your going to be taking that crap.
