Yaz birth control
Hey im 17/f and i went to the doctors for birth control and recommended Yaz. I got it and i wanted to know a little bit more about it. If you're on it what are the good effects and bad effects of it? Can you please just tell me a little bit more about it. Thanks a bunch!

Side effects are similar regardless of the birth control you're taking. Yaz is a different hormone than a lot of others, hence the "lower dose" and claims about acne/mood/etc. One of the things about it is that it can increase potassium levels so you'll most likely be tested at some point. That's not usually a big deal, by the way, so don't worry about it.
The symptoms the girl below me described are accurate, for the first month you'll probably be spotting regardless of the type. After a few months, though, you should be fairly regular. If you aren't you'll probably need another type, the girl below me should probably do something about her symptoms, the right pill wouldn't be doing all that. All this has probably already been explained to you.
I've been on it for about two months so I can't totally say how well it's worked for me. I can, however, say that it didn't cause me any weight gain [some women do, some women don't] and hasn't affected my mood. Again, how each girl reacts to each type of pill affects what she ultimately sticks with and can't really be predicted until you actually TAKE the pill for a few months.

first month for me was so dizzy and light headed i would have to stop walking and sit down constantly. (no im not out of shape)cramps were terrible, it made me sick if i forgot a pill. now 7 months later, still dizy, still light headed, doesnt help with bloating, i still get sick before my perios, my cramps are worse, my periods saty 10-14 days long. (my first period on the pill was like 18 days). i had perfect periods before i started it, they were just very irragular. i would go months without them. i wish i was not on it. i hate it. i have been on three other kinds of birth control and they worked better for me than yaz. but its low dosage so the side effects are lower.. if i did not need to take it i wouldnt. but hopefully it will work for you!
