I was on orthotricyclen a few years ago and absolutely hated it too. And 2 others. No luck with them either.

I know nothing about Yasmin, but I've been on Demulen for 1 1/2 years, and I love it. I take it for about 6 weeks though, not 3, then take a week off to get my period. For some reason, this cycle prevents pain and mood swings for me, and I feel wonderful. I had some breast tenderness at first, but not so much anymore. And it seems that when I added glucophage to the package, the breast tenderness disappeared altogether. Related? I don't know.

I guess what I'm trying to say is don't give up yet.
