Pros:

Cleared skin, lighter perods no weight gain actually lost a few pds on it.

Cons:

breasts tenderness, nausea for the first 3 months on it.

Stopped taking last year because of the potential serious side effects. My acne is really bad now tried other methods going to derm and taking antibiotics and topical creams but it didnt have the same results as i did with yasmin. Yasmin really cleared my skin will go back on it.

Pros:

NEVER getting pregnant, controlled my acne, knowing exactly what day I will start my menstrual, controlled weight gain, and very few menstrual cramps.

Cons:

Monderate PMS and ALWAYS having to remember the pill.

My doctor put me on this birth control when I was 14. I have been on it over 5 years. I have never had a scare about getting pregnant. I had pretty severe acne when I was 14 and it cleared it up and I've never had a problem since. I love knowing the exact day I will start and end my period. I have never really gained any weight, I have weighed about the same as I did when I was 16. I have never really had a problem with horrible menstrual cramps. So overall I would deff. recommend this birth control to anybody. It has worked wonders..... I am proud to say I am one of the last girls in my group of friends that has NOT had a child.

Pros:

Lighter periods, breast tenderness is gone, predictable periods, less pain during period, not pregnant

Cons:

None really...it has worked very well for me.

Yasmin is the third pill i have tried i have been on it now for 9 months. The previous two pills that i tried were microgram and cilest both of which give me breast tenderness. Yasmin so far has been great. I have not put on any weight, however my boobs may have got bigger but this is to be expected with every pill. I think every pill that you are on will increase your appetite and this is something that should be controlled.

Pros:

Cleared Skin, No pregnancy

Cons:

Frequent Urination, moodiness at first, but subsided -- see Bottom Line

I used the generic, Ocella. I gave this pill 3 months,and it came through wonderfully. Months 1 and 2 were rough, but my skin has not had any new breakouts in month 3. I was having bad mood swings, but happened to get a blood workup from the doctor and found out my Vitamin D was EXTREMELY low. I started taking prescription Vitamin D supplements about the time my 3rd month of Ocella started, and the mood swings went away completely, and now my skin is clear. I'd recommend this to anyone who has hormonal acne. I'm 26 years old.
