I never really took into consideration that birth control has other side effects other then blood clots that are bad! I was on one birth control for 5 years and never thought anything of my symptoms, just thought they were how my body worked but this year researched to find out that my birth control were causing these and it would be wise to switch! Soooooo I recently switched from Tricyclen to Yaz.
I was having bad ance forming that past year and figured a switch would help for that but nooooope! Yaz made it ten times worse! like ewwww I’ve never had acne this bad before, I was breaking out every day! I knew it was the bcontrol becuase I generally am a healthy eater drink only water and green tea and wash my face morning and night! When I remove make up I also make sure to wash twice in one go! I also felt it made me emotionally crazy ๐ I already wanted to switch after the first month then this huge conspiracy on how dangerous Yaz is came out on the news and web sites so that basically tipped me over the edge that I really need to switch!
So yesterday I got switched to Alesse, Hopefully this one works better. Already compared to Yaz I didn’t feel extremely nauseous when I started Alesse like I did with Yaz. I’m hoping it works wells. Now I’m not saying Yaz is terrible and not to try it. Birth control works differently with everybody. Don’t listen to bad reviews, I wouldn’t bother trusting all the negative you will find online only listen to the few good reviews you find. People generally go online to review a pill only when they are angry and have nothing good to say. If people are happy with it, they wont feel the need to go out of their way to find somewhere they can write a review. So if you get prescribed Yaz there is a good chance it can work well for you ๐ Everything is worth a shot, and if its not for you, just switch! Like I did ๐ Still I know I’m not doing any good for my body knowing I’ve had three different forms of synthetic hormones in it within the past 2 months ๐ I wonder if I’ll end up switching back to my old on in the end? hahaha That would be funny…

June 13, 2012 at 5:34 amI can understand some of your issues, however, when changing to a new birth control you have to wait at least three months for your body to settle. Your body needs to adjust to the new medication, and then you can make an informed decision to change. I have changed about three times in a year due to side effects, so I can understand the frustration.
