Can anyone tell me about the birth control YAZ? My doctor recently has prescribed me to it.. for birth control.. and also for PMDD...and I was wondering if anyone had any horror stories to share about it before I risked taking it.

Hi

I was on yaz for the past 3 months , no major side effects , but i felt bloated during the first month ..later months it was fine . I did put on some pounds after i started the pill ...which i guess is ok (if u are not too conscious abt weight...lol). One more thing that happened to me was i use to feel very cranky during my periods . But one good thing tht happened to me was less pain during periods . I didnt suffer any major side effects but i recently stopped yaz coz i didnt like the idea of taking some pills with hormones.

I was on Yaz for about 6 months before my husband and I decided to start ttc. I absolutely loved it. It helped with minor acne that I had and I didn't get the headaches and cramps that I usually get around my time of the month. It also made my periods shorter and much lighter. I liked it so well that I had my doc put me back on it after I had my baby.
