Interesting. My cousin used to be a Phys. Asst. at an OB/GYN and the 2 pills she refused to perscribe were Ortho Tri-Cyclen and Yasmin. Fot the problems you are all have, plus with Yasmin you have to be careful with your potassium levels. It has some really bad side effect relating to that (though I don't think it's very common).

I used to be on Ovcon 35 - which was wonderful. I didn't gain any weight and my periods really shortened. No moodieness either. But now it's not covered in my insurance, so I switched to Modicon which my doc says is an "old school but very good" pill. Also no weight gain, super short light periods, but I think I might be a touch moodier with it. I'd recommend either as a user.

I have a pretty tough stomach, so I've never had problems with the vomiting. Though both these pills are consistent doses, so I think that helps. My doc said since the Ortho changes doses eash week that helps contribute to the stomach issues.
