Yaz!!!!!!!!!? Ok so im 17. i am interested in taking the birth control Yaz. I dont want to take it to prevent pregnancy, cause I plan on staying a virgin until Iam married. But I want to take it to have a more regular period and not so bad cramps. Right now every period i have is late and I get cramps so bad on the first day I have to stay in bed. So from experience does anyone think Yaz is right for me or have used it or are using it now.
How long does it take for Yaz to become effective? I just started taking Yaz last month. Today, I took the 4th pill in my second pack. I ended up having unprotected sex today, but he didn't finish inside of me. Is there any chance of pregnancy? I started taking it to regulate my period, so the first time I took it wasn't on the first day of my period, like it's supposed to be. Would that have any effect, either?
Will discountinuing Yaz birth control relieve side effects or cause weight gain? I have been on Yaz birth control for about 7 months now in hopes to clear up my acne and decrease my cramps. Sure enough my face is clear and my cramps are gone. However, after extreme side effects such as: weight gain, skin rash, breast tenderness, and mood swings, I decided it would be best to come off the pill. Has anyone experienced any problems with coming off Yaz. Is it possible to drop the weight gained on the Yaz when coming off? Thank you all!

Can spotting after sex be related to my Yaz birth control pill? I went to the gyno in June, and everything checked out fine. Later that month, I started taking the Yaz birth control pill. Pretty much since I started, I have noticed light spotting after sex. It's a light brown/pinkish color, and it really only comes out when I go to the bathroom. It stops within a few hours. I haven't experienced any spotting other than after sex. Has anyone else experienced this with Yaz or other birth control pills, or does anyone know if this is cause for concern?

Thanks!

Has anyone else completely lost their appetite after starting Yaz? I just recently started taking Yaz birth control. The one side effect I've noticed for me is that my appetite is completely different. Most of the time I'm not hungry, and whenever I eat certain foods, they almost make me nauseous after taking a few bites, and then I can't eat anymore. The only foods that I seem to be able to eat are carbs like bread, pasta, things like that. I am thinking this definitely has something to do with taking Yaz, so I was wondering if anyone else suffered these kinds of side effects?
Yaz and Antibiotics: how does it effect you if you start your new pack as you end your antibiotics? I have been on birth control for over 7 years consistently, and have been on Yaz for 8 months. I was diagnosed with a UTI and put on antibiotics, specifically sulfamethoxazole, for a week. I had my monthly during that week, and started a new pack the 2nd to last day of my antibiotics. So I had taken the first 2 BC pills of my new pack and on those 2 days I also took my last two days of antibiotics. I was sexually active on the 3rd day of my pack, but used backup for that day and the next two days. My question is if whether or not I have to continue a backup to use with Yaz if I had barely started my new pack as I was ending my antibiotics. Am I protected as fully against pregnancy with just my pill, or has my antibiotic in those first two days of my pack effected the entire month of my protection and so I need to use back up for a month? Thanks!
What are the upsides and downsides of using Yaz? I've been on the shot (Depo) for about a year now, but the side effects are wearing me thin. Abdominal pain, decreased sex drive, moodiness, etc etc... Am thinking of going back to the pill, but I like the idea of not having a period, or not getting it as often. Heard a lot about Yaz, but not any experiences with it. Can anyone who's taken it tell me some of the good and bad things about it, and if it's worth a try? Thanks Also, I'm 20 years old, and in a steady relationship.
What are some drugs that interfere with the effectiveness of oral birth-control, specifically Yaz? I know antibiotics lower its effectiveness, but I recently heard that b-12 will, as well as St. John's Wart, this got me wondering as I take various vitamins at different times, so do you know of any that are bad for the effectiveness of birth control pills, or where I could find that info? I looked on the Yaz website and couldn't find much outside of how great it is for ya! Thanks! P.S.-I'm married and just wanna put of kids for a few years, please don't go off into a abstinence discussion! Thanks! Oh, guess I should have specified that I'm already on it and have been for 5 months now, those symptoms are terrible, but I didn't have any of that, my breasts were a little sore for the first 2 months, not bad tho, and I had a bigger tendency to get headaches for the 1st couple months as well, but nothing major and now I feel as if I'm back to normal, no major symptoms at all!
What is the difference betweem Yasmin and Yaz Borth Control? My doctor switched me from Kariva to Yaz because of acne problems. I start it Sunday. I looked up info on it and horrible(and scary) information came up about Yasmin but nothing on Yaz. I'm afraid to switch now but I want to control the acne. My wedding is coming up and I don't want my period screwed up or any weight gain. I 'm probably just being paranoid but I would like some advice. Thank you so much.

My girlfriend has taken the birth contol YAZ pill for 8 days. How soon is it safe to have intercourse? My grilfriend was under the impression that because she is now taking YAZ, that after that first pill, she was protected from getting pregnant. We decided to wait until day 7 prior to having intercourse. Most pills I have been told about would take 30 days to be effective. I can say at this point I am a bit concerned. Does anyone know what the proper time frames are for this birth control, and when it is considered effective? Is it one day?
