Just wondered if there were any side effects or anything. I was on Yasmin before, and I just wondered if Ocella was any different at all? Anyone on this and know how it is? Let me know, thanks!

  1. Possible side effects

    SIDE EFFECTS that may occur while taking this medicine include bleeding or spotting between menstrual periods, breast tenderness, stomach cramps or bloating, nausea, vomiting, or weight changes. If they continue or are bothersome, check with your doctor. CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE if you experience migraine headache; persistent vaginal spotting; swelling of the fingers, hands, legs, or ankles; severe or persistent trouble sleeping; unusual tiredness or weakness; or vaginal odor, irritation, or discharge. CONTACT YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY if you experience a missed menstrual period; breast lump or discharge; calf or leg pain, swelling, or tenderness; change in amount of urine produced; chest pain or heaviness; confusion; coughing up blood; fainting; irregular heartbeat; left-sided jaw, neck, shoulder, or arm pain; mental or mood changes (such as depression); numbness of an arm or leg; one-sided weakness; persistent, severe, or recurring headache or dizziness; severe stomach pain or tenderness; slurred speech; sudden severe vomiting; sudden shortness of breath; symptoms of liver problems (such as yellowing of the skin or eyes, fever, dark urine, pale stools, loss of appetite); unusual or severe vaginal bleeding; or vision changes (such as sudden vision loss, double vision). An allergic reaction to this medicine is unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it occurs.

  2. I just started Ocella and I've had No side effects.  In fact my acne has cleared up more so than on Yaz!  Yaz made me break out like crazy.  All women are different and our side effects are different but I have broken out less and my periods have lightened up too.  It's reacting the same way Yasmin reacted for me.
