After being on ortho-try-cyclin for 6 years, I have recently switched to Yasmin.

I started taking the pills on Sunday, and within a few hours, my stomach and back were really itchy. It got so bad that I had to take benedryl that night. Since then, the itchiness has come and gone. I just took my 4th pill, and the itchiness is back.

I read the pamphlet that came with the package, but it mentioned nothing about experiencing anything like this.

Has anyone else had this happen on Yasmin? Or, is this just me being overly attentive to any possible side effects (real or imagined!)?
