Thousands of women use Yaz and Yasmin without significant negative side effects. In my personal opinion, the problem here is with lawyers instead of with the medication.
You can look up just about any recent medication and there will be lawyers looking to sue over them. In fact, Yasmin was, and may still be the most prescribed brand in the U.S. That's going to bring out so-called "ambulance chasers": lawyers looking for a pay-day.
Another thing to keep in mind is that everything has an increased risk of something. In fact there's about to be a change and warning on Tylenol because of the potential for Liver Damage. So those are all things to keep in mind.
All hormonal birth control has the potential to cause side effects, even severe side effects. However, the vast majority of people will be able to use them without those severe side effects.
Finally, when you look for information about people using a particular medication, it helps to remember that the people who have no problems with it aren't going to be posting about it. Practically no one says, "Wow, I'm on month 72 of [prescription] and I still have no problems! Woohoo!"
Instead, people comment when they have a problem they're looking to fix, or when they've had an experience that's unpleasant. This can cause someone to feel like there's a problem with whatever they're searching on because all they find is negativity.
Bottom line- if you worry about it, you don't have to use them. However, thousands of women use these pills without major problem.
