Hello! I have a question. I was on Yaz
continuously for the past 5 years. I would
go off of it twice a year. I did notice
that it never did block out all of my
symptoms. I also noticed that I was
getting period symptoms without the
bleeding twice a month...one week during
my normal period time and then another
week not during my normal period time. I
went off the pill completely in May. I got
my period as normal and bled. I noticed
that I did not have as many severe
symptoms as I did before I went on the
pill. However, I have noticed that I am
still getting two weeks each month with
period symptoms. Every other week this is
happening. The one week I have period
symptoms for 4-5 days (bloating, lower
back pain, pms, cramps, acne, but no
bleeding). Then the next week I am fine.
The week following, I get my actual normal
period with bleeding and everything. So,
in summary, I am getting a period every
other week, just one period is with the
bleeding. Does anyone have any advice?
