missed period on Yaz ?
Posted: 02-22-08 16:13pm

i started yaz this month and started taking my placebo pills 2 days ago and still have not gotten my period. I had sex without a condom twice but waited 2 weeks after I started just to make sure because i didn't trust waiting only a week.
is it normal to miss a period on yaz and should i not stress cause i have 2 placebos left or should i test now?

You are OKAY.

Many women on YAZ will often miss periods, or only have light spotting instead of a period.

This is because YAZ is SUPPOSED to make a shorter lighter period.

You do not 'need' a period on birth control.

You are most likely NOT pregnant, and you should still keep taking your pills as usual.

You can take a test if you want... You should start your NEXT pack on time, even if you do not get a period.
