I ended up taking the generic form of this medication, Microgestin, due to my other bc pill going up significantly in price. Worst mistake I ever made. I had hosts of problems for 3 years after taking this pill, and come to find out it's because this pill dropped my progesterone levels down very low. I've recently started using some progesterone cream, and all of my troubling symptoms have gone away. I recommend Estrostep FE, if anyone is looking to switch to another pill (don't get the generic kind, either). Have your GYN or an endocrinologist check your hormone levels if you are still having side effects after taking this pill. They may be able to prescribe something to help you.
The cardiologist recommended this drug and mentioned the main side effect was flushing. But that wasn't an issue, acid reflux is what started after about two weeks of taking it.
The only side effect that I have is tiredness, but I am not sure that the Imuran is the cause.
I LOVE Yasmin - it has changed my life. For me it has had the side effect of controling my anxiety and depression. I feel much more even in my moods throughout the month. My periods are very light and last less than 4 days. My doctor said people either love Yasmin or hate it. For me, it somehow works with my body chemistry beautifully. You need to try it for yourself before passing judgement, each person reacts differently.
