I'm on Yasmin... didn't make me gain weight, but made my already big boobs bigger....



ditto- I lost weight every where but my now large chest- I went from a b to a c in the last month- Jake is thrilled to say the least

seaonale made me gain wieght -

edited to add- seasonal also wrecked my sex drive- as soon as I went off- back to normal- luckily before it wrecked anything else like my marriage

on demulen for 10 years- nothing- bigger boobies but no real other symptoms. switched to generic and at first didnt like it but got used to it.. $5 a month as opposed to $40 even better!

Dang it! I'm just about to start Yasmin this weekend (previously I was on Ortho Tri Cyclen Low - which wasn't great for my sex drive, so I hope Yasmin will be better!).

The LAST thing I need is for my boobs to get bigger. Chat Icon

I actually just switched this month to Loestrin24. I think it's new. My gyn said I should have no weight gain, and the best thing of all is there's only 4 inactive pills (sugar pills), not 7. So, shorter periods for me!

So far I like it.

Honestly, I know everyone is concerned about weight gain, but the side effects I experienced are worse than a few extra pounds.

Low sex drive, mid cycle spotting, depression....



I agree. i had to go off the pill because i had absolutely NO sex drive. It was horrible.
