Switching Pills

Hi there, I’m after a bit of advice. After speaking to my consultant earlier this morning he has suggested changing my pill from Microgynon to Yasmin due to bleeding when taking back to back pack and to increase my hormone levels to hopefully stop this from happening.

I’ve heard lots of horror stories about Yasmin although my consultant has assured me the risks are minimum, has anyone else ever made the switch before and had negative side effects?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated
