Hello, I am 39, no kids and am now about to try Yaz as my third BC formula in an attempt to reduce cramping & heavy periods due to uterine fibroids. Tried and discontinued Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo and Allesse generic due to side effects. But my periods are just too painful, so I'm trying one more method. Yaz is my last, best hope! I am encouraged by the ladies who seem to report less stomach upset, fatigue, and general yuckiness than with regular BCs. Please share your Yaz experiences with me. Also, I notice on the package insert that "daily" use of NSAIDS like Advil is not advised due to possible raising of potassium levels. Can I take Advil at all... for example, during my period? (Although now my period won't be as painful... right?) Thanks

Yaz is not the same as Yasmin...
I'm on yaz right now after unsuccessfully trying generic alesse...and I'm so tired and just drag around and nauseous too. I'm on my 2nd week, but hoping it gets better.
I read the same thing about the NSAID's; I thought it may be okay if you only take a few doses. I had a doctor tell me that NSAIDs build up in your system so I figured that would be the difference between daily use and occasional use.
I have endometriosis and trying the pill to alleviate symptoms.
Sorry i don't have an answer. I just want something to work; it's frustrating to have to sit day after day wondering if it's going to work and get relief.

I would recommend double checking with your pharmacist about the issue of the NSAIDs and the Yaz.
I also tried Yasmin and had a hard time adjusting to it during the first week of use but then after 6 months I had to stop because of a different problem.

Yasmim (i assume thats the one your talkign about) is an all natrual one...it is thought to have less side effects than other pills, but still be quite strong.
You can take NSAIDs during your period if you need to. The warning is mainly for people who already have problems with their potassium levels.

Hi Dear! Diet pills are not good at any age! Some have dreaded side effect and in the long run all the "little" bit of weight you loss you will gain it all back and feel worse & even depress in the long run. You sound like a very intelligent young lady who like most of us in America are suffering from the effects of lack of nutrients. in our food; therefore due to that lack of nutrient our body so desperately seek we end up overeating & gaining unwanted weight. In your case I suggest you go the natural way. I am a fitness trainer an have great success by using a plant based nutritional. Is from a plant named Morenga Oleifera. Moringa has many uses and it has known to aid with weight loss.
