So its almost a month now I am on YAZ. My reason for getting on BC in the first place was irregular periods. So when my doctor introduced me to YAZ explaining how it will help regulate my period and help with fertility I was in awe. I am a hypothyroid patient and on Eltroxin  0.05mg. My periods about a few months ago started so heavy, started clothing in golf ball sizes. So bad that I thought I was losing my uterus!

Anyway I 1 month on YAZ and still bleeding. Bear in mind that was my reason getting on BC in the first place. The DR continues to insist that it will get better over time. I am getting really irritated, frustrated because I have been bleeding for over 3 months. Of course this doesnt sound healthy.

Reading some of the post here I see many suffer weight gain and hair loss, 2 major traumatic elements I have went through with my hypothyroidism. I am just hoping that this will not surface again. No woman wants to go through this.

I would hate to think that the doctor is only prescribing YAZ because of sined contracts as someone mentioned in an earlier post. Is there a doctor on the forum that can help me?

I am 29, diagnosed with hypothyroidism, irregular bleeding (non stop) and hoping in time to fall pregnant. PLEASE PLEASE help.
