Hey there I have been taking the Yasmin for a month now and I have not noticed any acne. I have noticed that when I start taking the period pills that I suffer from really bad headaches. Other then that I really have not had any problems. I was taking the ortho tricycle before and I had alot of hat flashes and night sweets and of course the mood swings. No more of any of these things.
