How does Yasmin works
Yasmin being a birth contraceptive pill contains the two hormones called estrogen and progestin. It works in two ways first by preventing the release of an egg or ovulation. Secondly it thickens the cervical mucus so that the sperm is unable to travel towards the egg to fertilize it. Yasmin Side Effects
Some of the common side effects that occur in relation to the adjustment of the body to the pill are: 1. Nausea
2. Headaches
3. Breast tenderness
4. Vaginal bleeding in between menstrual cycles
5. Skin rashes

1. Pregnant women should avoid intake of the birth control pill. 2. Women who suffered from any sort of breast, uterus or cervical cancer or had a heart stroke or any history of blood clotting in legs, lungs or eyes or other veins should not take the pill. 3. Those who had liver disorders or any active liver disease or are experiencing chest pain should avoid intake of this drug. 4.
