Has anyone taken the Jasmin BC pills? My dr thinks I MAy have endometriosis and wants me on BC pills. I have never taken one before so I'm a little tentative. I really don't want it to aggravate the IBS, but also don't want to gain weight and stuff.
Can anyone give me their insights please? Thanks

I used to use Yasmin, and it was fine for me. It really helped with some bloating and breast pain I was having on a different pill.
I've always become a little bit unstable for a few weeks when changing pills (I'm going through it now with my new NuvaRing), but it's nothing major. All I need to do is be a bit more strict with my diet and more regular in my exercise and cut myself a bit of slack (more reading on the couch!). Compared to endo or periods off the pill, it's nothing and it's very temporary!

Thanks so much for your response. I'm just a little nervous about taking another medication. I guess I'll just go ahead and try it.

I wouldn't stress too much about it. Really, if you have a bad reaction to BCPs, it's not going to be an IBS thing but rather something like mood swings or migraines. BCPs actually made me slightly more stable IBS-wise.
