Started YAZ after IUD expulsion Posted: 05-16-08 16:50pm


I happened to be in the 4% that has their IUD Paragard expel, it moved some and they couldn't push it back in place so they had to remove it, i have been bleeding for about 2 weeks. i hope that i'm not pregnant even though i don't want to think like that. i have had bad cases with ortho-lo and nuvaring with weight gain and them making me crazy but my doc put me on YAZ and told me to start today, Friday. I am at the middle of my cycle and was wondering if I should treat it as a day 1 start (i'm protected) or wait 7 days like a sunday start. my pharmacist said i can treat it as a day 1 start but wanted to see what some women thought.

If you started taking birth control pills in the middle of the cycle you won't be protected well until you get your next period. After you get your next period and continue taking pills you will be protected. So, you should use condoms until you get your next period. It is not normal to bleed more than 2 weeks but if bleeding is functional Yaz should help. If bleeding doesn't stop after start taking Yaz it could be due to some organic reasons (infection, tumor etc.). IUD increases the risk for uterine infections. Are you still bleeding?
