    I can't believe I allowed myself to let some stranger pharmacists talk me into changing my brand of pill. The first time I've ever feel the side effects of the pill. Morning sickness, hormonal imbalance and not to forget breakouts! I'm so upset with myself! My supervisor's even told me to take it easy at work so my skin can clear up. ARRRRRRRRRRRGh...... now I'm on a pill break. My skin's slowly clearly up. Shoooot...!

    Don't listen to just any pharmacists...

    I know! I remember that day so clearly!


    She kept on saying,

    "there are so many side effects'
    "it just ....(shakes her head)'
    'Its all artifical stuff and just bad... (shakes her head again)

    You know, all the stuff that makes you scared a little at that moment in time.

    How did the pharmacist change your brand without your doctor's prescription?

    What brand where you on? What are you on now? What state are you in. In some states, the pharmacist doesnt have a choice.

    I have taken the pill for years off and on ,,never had a problem.
    I have been off for 5 monthes to take a break and cuss I slacked on my appointment ,,blah blah ,,
    SO just back on ,,for 2 weeks and I feel like I am prego but 10 TIMES WORSE!!!
    BAD HEADACH,, SICKNESS 1-2 TIMES A DAY,,,MOODY AND TIRED AS HELL!
    So this is sooo strange to me as I have NEVER had an issue with any of the 4-5 brands I have tried,,,, only changed due to insurance changes,,,discontinued some ,,, I am currently on yasmine which I was on for a year prior to my 5 monthes without the pill.
    I don't get it? The only thing I can think of is I am getting older and hormones change?? But yeah ,,, I threw that in the trash ,,I can't live like that!

    Hmmm.... in this country, you can get pills without a doctor's prescription.

    I used to be on Mercilon.

    I went to the doctor the very first time but he prescribed me some old version of pills. It was about 3 times as big as most pills on the market and the levels were high.

    Needless to say, I didn't take it. A pharmacist gave me another version after I asked her questions regarding what the doctor prescribed and stuff.

    Last time, that lady gave me some local brand.

    Currently, I'm not on any.

    Yasmin is 5 times more expensive compared to most brands in this country.
