I don't understand why insurance won't cover it for medical uses.
I have a couple packs of Yasmin that I never used sitting in the medicine cabinet. I have yet to get a straight answer as to how to get rid of them (don't want to flush them or just throw them away since they are hormones). They give me really horrible migraines.

And I would think that the pill would be a huge savings over endometrial surgery. I don't understand insurance companies sometimes.

My packs just went up to $35...and I don't know why as there was supposed to be no change in our perscription plan. While $35/ month is less than paying for a child, I can't afford that much. I have tried taking generics and they definately make me feel awful.

The newest recommendation is to mix it with kitty litter and throw it out. I think the kitty litter step is more to make it less appealing for kids who might dumpster dive. I typically just throw them out. Just don't flush it, thats bad. There is a much lesser chance of the hormones making it into water via the landfill than when it gets flushed.
