Im taking the last packet of my pills this month and wounderd if I should not bother goin to docs next month to get more?? I've been on it coming up to 2 years now. Just wounderd what your views are?? I thought about going off it cos I have put loads of weight on since going on and thought if I come off the weight will come off too?? :yippe: But then again I dont wanna come off it cos I love the pill, I dont want any other contraception.
I've had a look around the net to see if the pill does damage if you stay on it too long but aint found any
Thanks

Yasmin's actually really good, and it claims to be different from other pills due to the low chance of weight gain, somehow it doesn't encourage water retention. Go and ask you doc about it, apart from the weight thing anyway I find it really good - I just seem to feel myself, there's nothing going on that I could think "ooh that's the pill that is" :yes:
