A member asked:

Why doesn't diarrhea affect yasmin (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) if the prescription information says something about intense diarrhea and lost of effect?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and no: If you have severe diarrhea over long period it would probably reduce yasmin (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) potency. If worried see your dr.
