The possibility of appearance of spin polarized states in nuclear matter is studied within the framework of a Fermi liquid theory with Skyrme effective forces in a wide range of isospin asymmetries and densities. There are a few possible scenarios of spin ordered phase transitions: (a) nuclear matter with SLy4 interaction undergoes at some critical density a phase transition to a spin polarized state with the oppositely directed spins of neutrons and protons; (b) in nuclear matter with SkI5 interaction a spin polarized state with the like-directed neutron and proton spins is formed; (c) nuclear matter with SkI3 interaction under increasing density, at first, undergoes a phase transition to the state with the opposite directions of neutron and proton spins, which goes over at larger density to the state with the same direction of nucleon spins. Spin polarized states at strong excess neutrons over protons are accompanied by the long tails in the density profiles of the neutron spin polarization parameter near the critical density, if the energy gain of the transition from the nonpolarized state to the polarized one is the decreasing function of isospin asymmetry (SLy4 force). In the opposite case, if the energy gain is increased with isospin asymmetry, there are no long tails in the density distribution of the neutron spin polarization parameter (SkI3, SkI5 forces).
