Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
"I have been on Ortho Tri Cyclen for two years and rapidly gained over 15 pounds after the first year. I never felt full after a meal, and would always crave sweets. Finally, 3 months ago I decided to go on Zarah, a generic brand of Yasmin. Before I was on birth control, I was 104 pounds. 3 months ago, I was 131 pounds and started becoming very concerned about my weight. After being on Zarah for these 3 months I am now 123.0 pounds! I&#039;m happier and less worried, and I want to lose at least 4 more pounds. This is a huge difference for me as birth control is something I need to be on to prevent any more cysts from forming. I&#039;ve had two burst in less than two weeks and had to be hospitalized."
