Is it ok to take yasmin birth control and smoke?
hi im 18 and have recently been prescribed yasmin birth control for my painful and irregular periods. i forgot to mention to my doctor that i smoke as she didnt ask me. ive been reading through the booklet and i read something about increased risk of blood clots if you are a smoker, how serious is this risk? i dont smoke heavily, between 2-5 cigarettes a day on average. should i switch to a different pill or is there not a high enough risk? thanks for your help.

The doctor that prescribed Yazmin is a HACK and possibly a QUACK because Yasmin and Yaz are involved in major lawsuits right now. The BAYER pharmaceutical makes that junk and it is very dangerous and has caused all kinds of health problems for women. You need to find a real doctor that actually cares about your health.
The BAYER pharmaceutical company is NOT a CREDIBLE, MORAL company. Watch this video and see what they did to hemophiliacs around the world with their injectable they knew was tainted:

Here is one law firm that is involved in one of the class action suits against Bayer for Yaz & Yazmin:

The truth is that ALL birth control pills affect your endocrine and that is a system of several organs in your body that is very complex and when you affect one of the organs in that system, you affect them all. It's one reason birth control pills cause you to gain weight because the thyroid is one of the organs in that system. The "feed back loops" that regulate functions in the body are affected. The so called "adjustment period" is your body defending itself from the damage it is doing. No one that is committed to giving or taking these pills is willing to face the truth. In fact, did you know that birth control pills contain less hormones now than they did for several years after they were approved by the FDA? Doesn't it seem odd that this fact was never widely publicized? They determined that breast cancer had increased due to the pill and made the changes. So, let's see, if you decrease the poison and it doesn't cause cancer, who's to say that other contributory factors won't also increase your chances of breast cancer that is now epidemic with 1 in 7 women getting breast cancer.
The adrenal glands are part of the endocrine system, as well as the pancreas. Does diabetes and bad menopausal problems ring any bells? No, you most likely won't find any so called "scientific study" that will back up this concept, but who are you going to believe? Doctors and drug companies that stand to make billions on this and that by the way, have no answers to why cancer by the year 2010 will be the number one killer in America over heart disease. And that statistic is due to how we have learned to keep people on life support drugs and give them "MAKE BELIEVE HEALTH." An interesting fact that makes me very concerned about what drug companies and the FDA are doing about this issue is that last year 10,000 to 20,000 max. people died from using illegal street drugs in the U.S. That sounds bad and our war on drugs is a total joke that is NOT winning that war. A few battles here and there, but the problem goes on and on. Last year, over 106,000 people died in hospitals in the U.S. from taking doctor prescribed medications that were FDA approved for the symptoms and correctly administered. That is almost 11 times the people dying from illegal drugs. Does that sound like a good system to you? Does that sound like we are waging war on the right problem? And that number are the people that died; just think of the ones that survived and were damaged by the drugs and still living as if they were on life support pills. I cannot put my trust in that system to look out for me in any way and people who do are paying the price each day.
Those symptoms you are having is your body trying to tell you something; I would listen very carefully to it. Your body has an innate intelligence that so called "modern" medicine does not.
There are many other methods of birth control that do NOT affect your body in a negative way. Remember, it's not just the symptoms you need to address, but what those symptoms are trying to tell you.
good luck to you
