I am 19 and I would like to know more about the new Yasmin birth control pill. I have heard that this pill can cause many side-effects. Will it affect my mood and my periods? Will the pill make me gain weight and are what the cases are when woman can't take the pill?

Yasmin pill is the most recent low-dose birth control pill. Yasmin is the only birth control pill to contain the synthetic progestin known as drospirenone. It's an alternative for women who experience adverse effects from other oral contraceptives. All birth control pills can cause side-effects, including Yasmin. The most common side-effect is vaginal bleeding between periods and this clears up within first few months. Other side-effects are increase in blood pressure, a spotty darkening of the skin, nausea, vomiting, change in appetite, headache, moodiness, loss of scalp hair, rash, and vaginal infections. When it comes to your periods, they will probably become more regular, with less overall bleeding and fewer menstrual cramps. Mood changes are one of the side-effects and they dont always have to be negative. Having fewer menstrual cramps may affect your mood in a positive way. Some women gain weight while taking the pill, some of them lose weight and in other cases the weight stays the same, it all depends on a metabolism of a person. Yasmin is not recommended for women who have kidney and liver problems, experience chest pain, have a history of blood clots and stroke, history of breast cancer in family etc. Also, women who smoke, have diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol need to take precautions while taking Yasmin pill.
