"I was on Yaz for 4 years, and I loved it. My insurance stopped covering the brand name, so I got switched to Gianvi, and it is not the same. My skin isn&#039;t as great as it was with Yaz, though there&#039;s still not much acne. I&#039;ve been gaining weight (about 15 pounds over a year), and I crave carbs way more than I did before. I&#039;ve also gotten very dry all over, from my eyes (I can&#039;t wear contacts anymore) to my mouth, from my regular skin to my genitals (it&#039;s been making sex rather uncomfortable). I&#039;m switching to Nuvaring in hopes that a lower-dose birth control will help alleviate these symptoms."
