2002
Researchers from Department of Dermatology at the University Medical Center Utrecht, Netherlands finda paper in the American Journal of Clinical Dermatology also demonstrating Yasmin's acne-fighting tendency.
A team of endocrinologists from the Klinikum Benjamin Franklin, Freie Universität Berlin verify Yasmin's weight-loss connection. It is now sound medical consensus that Yasmin will make you super pretty.
2003
Stop prancing. After five young and otherwise healthy Dutch women die of pulmonary embolisms after taking Yasmin for a short amount of time, a team of researchers in the Netherlands led by Dr. Kees van Grootheest, who is not a sectional sofa, published a paper in the British Journal of Medicine titled "Thromboembolism associated with the new contraceptive Yasmin." Again, this paper looked at five (not five thousand) women. Later that year, scientists from Spain published a similarly-themed paper called "Transient ischaemic attack [a terrifying stroke] associated with the new contraceptive Yasmin."
"Sudden death" is added to Yasmin's side effects, and everyone starts PMS-ing over it.
2004
Good news! A Bayer-sponsored Europe-wide study found that there was no statistically significant risk of stroke or cardiovascularly-related death among women who took drospirenone-containing birth control pills as compared to women who took previous generations of progestin-containing birth control pills. On the one hand, Bayer is looking to acquire Yasmin from Berlex's parent company (which they finally do in 2006). On the other hand, well, sure, maybe that raises some conflict-of-interest questions -- but still, it's science, with statistics and everything.
2005
Good news that isn't tainted by corporate interests! A team of scientists from from the Department of Epidemiology at the University of Pittsburgh (and funded by grants from the National Cancer Institute) find that all androgenic and nonandrogenic progestin-containing birth control pills yield "a similar and significant reduction in ovarian cancer risk."Call 800.637.8170 for your free consultation if you have suffered serious health problems while taking Yaz birth control.
