Has anyone ever taken Yaz/Does anyone take Yaz?

I recently started taking Yaz and I'm almost to the 4th week. I have ballooned up, had horrible cramps since I started taking it, had horrible headaches, felt nauseous, and my breasts and body have been SO SORE! Also, I've been so tired.

I know you're supposed to wait until the 2nd month to see how you feel, but I'm just wondering, has anyone else had these symptoms or any other symptoms from Yaz that were almost unbearable? I'm thinking of just stopping taking it.

    I have not tried Yaz, but a friend of mine did. She had horrible side effects the first 2 months-spotting the whole time, cramping, nausea, headaches and mood-swings. After a few months her symptoms subsided. It may be your body adjusting to the new hormones. If conditions do not get better by the next month, you may want to discuss it with your doctor. The hormonal dosage may not agree with your body- and you may need to switch to something else. Sometimes the doctor can prescribe anti-nausea medication until your body gets used to it-other times, they will recommend something else.

    Good Luck!

    Were you previously on birth control,or is this the first brand of pill you've ever used? I have successfully been on yaz for over a year now. I switched from Ortho-tri-cyclen to Yaz and never had any problems at all. It could be that your body is just responding different that usual. Thats pretty normal. I would just wait for another month or two and see if the symptoms subside. If not, then you might wanna talk to your doctor.

    I tooked it for 9 months and enjoyed it. I had to regulate because of the fact it became too costly. I even have taken 4 categories and it became my well-liked. Lightest and shortest classes (3 days) no different ingredient outcomes, horomones have been unnoticable. I wish i'm going to have stayed on it. much extra effective than yasmin. in case you are able to arise with the money for it, its way worth it.
