Question 4

What is Yasmin and what is it used for?

Accepted Answer

Yasmin is a combined oral contraceptive pill used to prevent pregnancy. It is also often prescribed to help regulate periods, reduce painful cramping, and treat moderate acne or symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Question 5

What are the active ingredients in Yasmin?

Accepted Answer

The active ingredients in Yasmin are ethinylestradiol (30 micrograms) and drospirenone (3 milligrams). Drospirenone is unique as it possesses anti-androgenic properties, which can help in reducing physical symptoms like oily skin and bloating.

Question 6

How does Yasmin work?

Accepted Answer

Yasmin works by preventing the release of an egg from the ovaries each month. It also increases the thickness of the fluid in the neck of the womb, making it harder for sperm to reach an egg, and thins the lining of the uterus to prevent a fertilised egg from implanting.

Question 7

How should I take Yasmin?

Accepted Answer

You should take one Yasmin tablet every day at approximately the same time for 21 consecutive days. After finishing a pack, you will have a 7-day break during which you do not take any pills and will typically experience a withdrawal bleed.

Question 8

What are the potential side effects of Yasmin?

Accepted Answer

Common side effects may include temporary nausea, breast tenderness, or mild headaches during the first few weeks of use. In rare cases, combined contraceptives can increase the risk of blood clots.

Question 9

Can I use Yasmin to delay my period?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can delay your period by starting a new pack of Yasmin immediately after finishing the current one, skipping the 7-day break. You may experience some spotting or breakthrough bleeding.

Question 10

What should I do if I miss a pill?

Accepted Answer

If you are less than 12 hours late, take the missed pill immediately and your contraceptive protection should not be reduced. If you are more than 12 hours late, your protection may be lowered.

Question 11

Does Yasmin protect against STIs?

Accepted Answer

No, Yasmin is designed solely for pregnancy prevention and does not provide any protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). You should use barrier methods, such as condoms, to protect against STIs.
