Hi,
I really need som advice. I have been using yasmin bcp for 3 months and 5days today. Before that I have used another bcp pill called Jeanine (ethinyl estradiol/dienogest) which really helped my acne. After about year and a half of using it I started to retain water and I couldnt loose weight so my gyno put me on yasmin (called yadine here). The first two months of using it everything was fine, I didnt get hardly any acne but from the second half of the third month is everything worse and worse. I am getting a lot of clogged pores and under the skin bumps and my hair is suddenly very oily.
Do you think that my body is still adjusting to yasmin and thats why I am getting breakouts?
Or do you think yasmin is just not good for me?
Do any of you have similar experience?
Is there such a think like initial breakout with yasmim?
Please help I am really desperate...
Hey, exact same happened to me I switched onto Yasmin and my skin was really good for about 3-4 months and eventually my skin started getting terrible I stuck with it for at least almost half a year but it did nothing but get worse. eventually decided to come off be altogether, I have been off bc for over half a year and I now have virtually clear skin
I have read somewhere that the anti androgenic effects of the hormones in Yasmin slowly wear off and are not permanent and know many people that have has the same problem
