HI there - I've been on bcp for peri symptoms (Yasmin - just finished my 5th pack). Up until this last month I was doing better and it seemed to flatten my symptoms out, but I've been having brainfog for nearly 4 weeks now. Anyone else get brainfog on bcp?

Thanks for sharing any experiences.

I have read forums pertaining to yasmine that women claim the same thing. Maybe have a look at those. Typing in Yasmine and brain fog should pull them up. Sorry to read you still aren't feeling better! sad.gif

If you feel better during the week off,I would suggest switching pills.The yasmin made me really depressed and disconnected.I now take zovia and feel so much better.GODbless.

Have felt a bit better during my week off - brainfog and tingling both better. Found a "Yasmin survivors" messageboard as well which cites brainfog and weird neuro stuff as common side-effects. Back to see my GYN soon I think. Thanks for your advice. biggrin.gif

You are quite welcome,it took me a while to get better after taking the yasmin,so if you switch pills give yourself at least a month to see a real difference.GODbless
