Birth Control
"I have been on Yaz for over a year now. At first it was great, my skin cleared up, my periods were regular, light and short and my moods varied only slightly. After about the first 5 months however, everything started going wrong. I have constant heartburn, I&#039;ve gained 10 lbs., I&#039;m tired all the time, my acne has returned and I&#039;ve been spacey and forgetful. Worst of all are my periods. The week before and throughout my period my moods are ALL over the place, I&#039;m irritable and easily upset which isn&#039;t like me. I&#039;m getting severe cramps, migraines and I get really nauseous when I&#039;m on my period, which are heavier now than they ever were and last usually about 8 days, last month it lasted 11! Everyone&#039;s different, but this isn&#039;t for me."
