Glad it works for you too. I had never been on the pill, but a long while back took Depo as well. Depo was a nightmare. Periods irregular and I retained water and looked like a beached whale.
since I have pudendal neuralgia, and I have always had dysmennorea ( painful periods) I had to get on a birth control, as the periods with the PN were increasing the burning significantly. I am on my 4th pack of YASMIN, and it has been great. Periods are predictable, no breakthrough, minimal cramping, and it lowers the pain during the period with my PN so it certainly helps.
I truly hope it works for you. The first month I had some nasea, but that is about it. Let us know how it goes jess
