It's a shame that your doctor discounted what you had to say about Yazmin, because depression and/or anxiety can be a serious side effect of any birth control pill. When I first went on the pill, my doctor warned me to stop taking it immediately if I started to feel depressed. I've been on microgestin for several years, and it's worked well for me. I've been tempted by these Yazmin commercials, but I think I'll stick with what I'm on. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I've been on fairly high courses of steroids at different times over the last 10 years, and it's happened frequently enough that I kind of expect it and have almost gotten used to it. Both of these classes of drug have significant impact on hormone production and efficacy, though I suspect that the testosterone levels might be a coincidence and not the problem (I'm male and if my libido levels during these periods are any indication, my testosterone production is fine). If I were you, and this problem persists or presents itself in the future, you would want to see an endocrinologist. They would definitely have the knowledge and tools to help sort this out.

I know two people on it and both do and always have loved it with few or no side effects. You should try the ring.
