Yaz Birth Control Reviews

Yaz birth control reviews have been mixed. Some women have reporting being thrilled with Yaz as a contraceptive, whereas some women dropped it like a rock when they started having some of the serious side effects associated with this oral medication. If you haven't used Yaz as your birth control method yet, it's a good idea to look for all the Yaz reviews you can find, to see how other women have fared with the contraceptive.

The Potential Yaz Side Effects

An oral birth control drug, Yaz is a contraceptive pill taken each day — 24 consecutive active pills and then four daily inactive (placebo) pills. Women who have used Yaz as their birth control method have experienced an array of troubling Yaz side effects, ranging from minor to severe. Some of the side effects associated with the birth control pill include:

upper respiratory infection, bronchitis, increased cough
headache, migraine
sore throat
fever
diarrhea
nausea, vomiting
flu syndrome, rhinitis, sinusitis
pain, pain in extremity, pelvic pain, breast pain, abdominal pain, back pain
allergic reaction, infection
moniliasis (yeast infection), vaginal moniliasis, leucorrhea (a type of vaginal discharge)
urinary tract infection, cystitis, vaginitis
tooth disorder
suspicious Pap smear, menstrual disorder, dysmenorrheal, intermenstrual bleeding ("breakthrough" bleeding)
gastroenteritis, dyspepsia, pharyngitis
skin disorder, acne
weight gain
heart attack
stroke
pulmonary embolism
blood clots

If you experience any of these side effects of Yaz birth control after you begin using this contraceptive, talk to your doctor immediately for help. After you receive the appropriate medical attention, it is a good idea to consult a Yaz birth control lawyer who will help you recover compensation for your losses including medical expenses, lost wages and emotional pain and suffering.

Yaz Birth Control Reviews and Drospirenone

Yaz birth control uses two hormones - drospirenone (pronounced "dro SPY re noan") and ethinyl estradiol - to prevent a woman's ovulation (the release of an egg that could become the basis for a pregnancy) and to make the woman's cervical and uterine lining less hospitable to sperm.

The many negative Yaz birth control reviews may be linked to drospirenone, a relatively new synthetic hormone. Drospirenone is unlike any other progestin hormone that is used in the combination oral contraceptives (OCs) available in the U.S., in that it is derived from a different source.

A Short Track Record

Yaz has not been on the market very long compared to, "the Pill" (the traditional combination OC), and its long-term effects are not yet known. In fact, Yaz was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a birth control method in only 2006 — that's not enough of a track record to really know everything there is to know about Yaz side effects, effectiveness and ratings compared to all the other birth control methods out there.
