For the past year i have been taking YAZ birth control, and when i say i take birth control i mean RELIGULOUSLY (even down to having an alarm set on my phone). I recently started taking probiotics, fish oil, and multi vitamins, due to getting my gallbladder taken out 3 months ago. My boyfriend and i have sex regularly and its always unprotected (both of us have been checked and are clean). I've never ONCE before, and while taking birth control had the type of symptoms i've been having for the past 2 weeks.
My period started Januray 23, 2010. Due to being on the bc my cycle usually last about 25-26 days. Meaning i ovulated between January 30th- February 5th. I know for a fact my boyfriend and i had sex more than once during that time. That fallowing week i started experiencing abdominal cramping, "hot flashes", and fatigue. Since then my symptoms have progressed to: NAUSEA, CRAMPING, BLOATING, BACK PAIN, BREAST & NIPPLE TENDERNESS, HEADACHES, FOOD AVERSIONS, AND A TAN VAGINAL DISCHARGE. My period is due in 5 days (according to the pills) but i tried an HPT today, and it came back negative. Not only was it stupid for me to have tried a test this soon, but i also took it around 2pm and after drinking a can of diet pop. I have another test that im saving if my period doesnt come.
I apologze for the long post, but i dont know whats more confusing...the fact that im on and have been taking birth control, or the idea that maybe the vitamins and probiotics ive been taking have something to do with it. If there's anyone out there who has or is experiencing any of these symptoms, please help! Thanks so much!

Did you find out if what your taking could effect the bc pills? Those syptoms also sound like pms being so close to your cycle as well. I would wait for your period to come.

Hello, I am sorry to hear of all of your problems and pain. I can only share my experience with you and hope it will encourage you to be proactive in your quest for an answer. I took YAZ about a year ago for only about three weeks. <for some background: I had experienced monthly migraines (around my menstrual cycle) for around 10 years.>
After taking the YAZ I began having headaches daily. In the beginning I was having hot flashes. My face would turn red. My cheeks rosy colored. I couldn't bend over the blood would rush to my head. Nausea, vertigo, breast pain, back pain and fatigue.
Now one year later I have been in the bed for almost four months with constant symptoms. I get out of breath and shaky when I walk 50 ft. and try to do anything. I am on Topamax for migraines (doing nothing), the doctors keep giving me anti nausea meds that just put me to sleep. But the vertigo is the worst. The only thing that seems to help is xanex. I hope you reconsider taking the YAZ. Even though I am not sure this is what caused my illness. It is a strange coincidence!
I wish you all the luck.

I have been experiencing the same exact thing. I have been on birth control for over 2 years now with nothing but
Great results. I started birth control to regulate my period and do some damage control on my stomach problems and so far it has done wonders.
I'm currently engaged to my fiance that I have been with for over a year. In the beggining, we had sex often, over time
It has lessened due to work and other things. Last month I was inconsistent with the birth control for the last week. After my last period, my fiance and I had sex.
Two days later the nausea, fatigue, and stomach pains started. The next day it was bloating, loss and gain of appetite, more bathroom trips
For #2. Next day, my breasts were extremely sensitive and every day they have gotten more and more tender and I noticed today
That they are swelling. The back pain started yesterday and its more intense then normal. The day my fiance and I had sex, I forgot to take my
Birth control. I also took two pregnancy tests. Both came up negative but it is also 3 weeks before my expexted period.
I have had scares before but they never felt like this. Plus I just feel pregnant. Please help.

I am not sure about the birth control but I can tell the lady businessmomof2 that I was on topomax for 5 months becuse of migraines and that is what caused my symptoms. I stopped taking it and everything went away. Now I just take some excedrine to take the edge off my migraines and go about my day(although at a much slower pace).
