If you want to discuss this further, I highly recommend contacting your GYN to speak with a nurse there, or contact your pharmacy.
However, YAZ has a website and I was able to find this information for you...
"You may experience side effects, such as unexpected bleeding.
This happens between periods, and can occur with any birth control pill, especially in the first month of use. You may have "spotting" that looks like a light stain. Or you might have "breakthrough bleeding," which is more like a period. If this happens, don't be alarmed. This is normal. Continue to take YAZ every day, and this type of bleeding should stop after the first few months, once your body adjusts. But if it continues, talk to your healthcare professional."
You mentioned it is your fourth month of use so your body should be getting used to the hormones. When taking artificial hormones, the body can react differently than it normally would, but again, it may make you feel better contacting a nurse at your GYN. They are usually more than happy to answer your medical questions.
Also, here is the YAZ website if you want to read more information.
I hope this helps some.
