A week does seem like a very short time to gain so much weight, so some of this might be down to what you might find are normal fluctuations in how heavy you are to do with your natural cycle.
However, you mention a family tendency towards PCOS/Syndrome X etc, which (as you probably know) can make you gain weight rapidly. Yasmin kind of masks the symptoms of PCOS, so you might want to keep an eye on whether you develop any other symptoms now you're off HBC. That said, a week really is very, very soon to be jumping to any conclusions of that nature!
