hi jess i am currently on yasmin abnd like it so far except my skin gets very very dry (and i already have dry skin). the only other pill i have been on is ortho tri cyc and i was on it for about 3 years. i went off because it was making me feel woosy on the first pill of every month. very woosy. my doctor said that yasmin has a low dosage of est so it might be worth trying for you. i hope you find something that works for you. (have you tried acupunture? since it sounds as though you are very sensitive you may be a good candidate.) good luck alexandra
