"yasmin is a life saver. i would honestly recommend it to anyone with persistent acne. my acne came back when i was 20 after my skin had been completely clear since i was around 16. my gp didn&#039;t feel like it was severe enough to put me on strong medication again like i was during my teen years so he prescribed me yasmin. i have been taking yasmin now for around 8 months and my acne is completely gone.  i stopped taking it at one point for about a month because i was away and unable to get a prescription and my break outs started to come back which definitely proved to me that yasmin actually works. i still get the odd spot here and there but they are always small and easy to get rid of i no longer get cystic spots at all !!"
