Birth Control
"I used Yaz on and off for several years and the first month was always the hardest: fatigue and extreme irritability. Your energy reserves should not be spent trying to keep rage in check. Nevertheless, after that adjustment period, I leveled out somewhat and experiences some pro&#039;s: clearer skin, fuller breasts, no noticeable weight gain (though I diet like a jockey) and of course no babies. Period was mercifully light (2-3 days) and PMS was slightly minimized (but still acknowledged by boyfriend). My libido slowly started to ebb.
By the 2nd or 3rd month, moderate depression. By the 4th, severe. By the time I started having suicidal thoughts, I decided to switch to a less psychologically harmful method of birth control: abstinence."
