Yasmin

Yasmin is a birth control pill that combines two hormones: drospirenone and ethinylestradiol. It is designed to prevent pregnancy by stopping ovulation (the release of an egg). Additionally, it thickens cervical mucus to block sperm entry and alters the uterine lining to reduce the chance of implantation. Yasmin may also help with hormonal-related conditions like acne or irregular periods. It is taken daily and requires a healthcare provider’s prescription to ensure it’s appropriate for your health. Like all medications, it has potential side effects and risks, so a medical consultation is important before use.
