Anyone taking YAZ?!
Question: Anyone taking YAZ!?
I've been on YAZ for a month in a half now, originally to regulate my periods!. I had terrible break outs and mood swings so my Gyno suggested this to help in those areas too!. I have noticed my acne problem is less and not so many mood swings, people say I am a lot more light hearted than before!. But as for the regulating of my period I am not so sure!. Before I was on the pill I would get my period maybe once ever 3 or 4 months and it would last 4 or 5 days with minimal cramping!. Now on YAZ I have had severe cramping and have been bleeding now for over 2 weeks!. I have an appointment with the Gyno this Thursday!. Just wondered if anyone could tell me if this is normal with YAZ when first starting out!. Am I worrying over nothing!? Is my body just trying to adapt to the hormones!? Its really terrible cramps and all I want to do is lay in bed!. I was never like this before, cramps would not be that bad so they never stopped me from life!. I just don't know if I should be concerned!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
switch to another pill!. not every pill is good for everyone!. for me, all the orthro pills (nuva ring, evra, tri cycline, seriously all of them) had effects similar to what you're experiencing, for me!.
while on yaz, though it was the best pill i'd taken so far, i did have symptoms!. my libido decreased, and i was more "stable" less likely to get very excited or very angry, i also was slightly less creative!. very strange side effects, none of which were in the booklet and all of which i realized only after getting off the pill!. but anyway, if i doesn't work for you, switch and keep switching until you've found the right one!. for me, i just figure hormones are not my friends, so i'm off that bandwagon!.
