I have been on yasmin for 15 cycles now and on and off for 7 years. Never had any side effects or irregular spotting. This month, on my 8th pill, I experienced light spotting. I have been bleeding constantly since then. Today is the 7th day with heavy bleeding (tampon fills up in 4 hour). Doctor has asked to continue yasmin for this cycle. Is there a way to stop this bleeding, as it's getting very uncomfortable.

Absence of external symptoms does not mean you are not getting side effects. After substantial injury it will cause major symptoms. The most dangerous is increased chances of developing cancer.
