An Alternative Girl (Female, Who Cares?, Student) asked:


This one is for the girls(guys too if you have answers)
Okay,I am taking birth control pills(yasmine)and I know one of the side effects is that you gain weight.
But lately I have been feeling near faint,I have loss of appetite,or when I do feel like eating,I eat alot.Also im starting to break out,and I threw up twice today?
Are these symptons of birth control pills that I never knew about?
Or should I stop taking them and go and see a doctor ASAP?

Anything can happen the first month or so...give it a few more weeks and if you feel crummy, call the MD.

Call your Dr. immediately tomorrow morning. They do sound like side effects of medications. However, it is up to your Dr to decipher it and never stop taking any medication unless you clear it with your dr first.

Um ... I hate to tell you this, and maybe you already know ... but those are also signs of "birth control pill failure". I recommend an EPT, followed by a visit to the doctor.

discontinue the birth control right now and see a doctor before continuing. These are all symptoms that you can have from Yasmin.

Yasmine is not a good form of birth control since its low hormone. People use it for acne, regulate their periods among other things. Talk to your doctors about this and switch brands because you are having a bad side effect.

Also, I hate to tell yo this.. but take a pregnancy test because those are similar symptoms.

Hmmm... It kinda sounds like being pregnant to me. Since it's a medical thing, (and I'd be concerned about feeling faint anyway, just for the sake of fainting at a dangerous time) I would talk to my doctor. If you are pregnant you will have to stop taking birth control. Just to be sure, if you have something like Ask A Nurse in your phone book you could check with them too. Good luck.

Why don't you call the pharmacist now? The pharmacist is a very good person to ask.
