Hi all. I've recently gone on Yasmin to shrink ovarian cysts. I've just completed my first week. I just want to ask some things though. I think the hormones are doing things to me! I guess they do to most people, but i just want to ask how long the side effects will last.
Ok, the most obvious one is that i'm really tearful. It's really bad, yesterday i felt like i was constantly going to burst into tears. I could feel the tears welling up and got that burning in my throat.
Another is that my period just won't stop. It's not heavy, barely even mucus (sorry if that's a bit graphic!), more a red water. It's not really bothering me, i'm expecting that kind of thing.
I've got spots! I don't usually. Maybe one before my period.
My breasts are sore. Usually they're only sore 3 days prior to my period, then as soon as it starts, they stop hurting.
This is a weird one. I'm not sure if it's anything to do with the hormones, but i've never had this before. I just can't seem to drink water! I used to love water, i drink lots of pints a day. But now i take a sip and just feel full. It's a real chore to drink water now. It even feels different when i drink it. I feel a bit like i'm drunk and should drink water, but it just doesn't go down.
All i really want to know is if anyone else here has those side effects from Yasmin, and how long it will be before they pass. Thanks for any help!
