Yasmin can effectively resist the hypokalemia that may be caused by estrogen, and improves the problem that some current emergency contraceptives may cause users to gain weight. It is the first contraceptive that can control weight. Yasmin is a new emergency contraceptive currently launched in China.

The harm of stopping taking Yasmin

You cannot stop taking Yasmin midway. If you stop taking the medicine halfway, it will cause disruption of the menstrual cycle and abnormal uterine bleeding, so if we want to take Yasmin, we should continue taking it for 21 days. After stopping the medicine, you will not take it again. This is good for the body and the regularity of the menstrual cycle.

One tablet of Yasmin contains 3 mg of drospirenone and 0.03 mg of ethinyl estradiol, and is mainly used for female contraception. This drug contains a new type of estrogen called drospirenone. In fact, drospirenone is a new type of estrogen with anti-mineralocorticoid specificity. In addition to being able to achieve effective contraceptive measures, it also has other characteristics.

Like drospirenone, it has anti-mineralocorticoid properties, can prevent weight gain and other symptoms caused by fluid retention, it provides good tolerance against estrogen-related hypokalemia, and has a positive effect on premature menstrual syndrome.

The anti-androgenic properties of drospirenone have a beneficial effect on the skin, reducing the damage of acne and the formation of epidermis.

In addition, drospirenone does not counteract the increase in estrogen fusion proteins associated with ethinyl estradiol, which is beneficial for the fusion of endogenous androgens and their degradation.
