I used to be on Ocella or whatever and I had no problems with that, but now I'm on YAZ and I have about one white pill left until my new pack and I'm worried I might be pregnant or something because I have yet to start my period. I keep reading about how its normal for your period to come in late but so far everyone that's said it has been on thier 2nd or 3rd pack =|

for 2 monthes i was on my first birth control, but switched to yaz because i was having terrible mood swings and loss of sexual desire. I am on the second white sugar pill and i still have not had my period. My breast are sore, but i haven't had any cramps, i dont feel PMS at all. I havent had sex in a while and know i am not pregnant. I am not sure if its normal to miss my period like this, it feels....well unnatural and i am worried that this will cause health problems

I have been on YAZ for 3 months and am going to switch back to the ortho tricyclene. This pill makes me feel like miserable all month long. PLUS my boobs have increased in size and are very tender to the touch. It makes in uncomfortable to even sleep. AND my period has not been regular at all. I hate not knowing when my period is coming and wondering if I am PG. Glad to hear that there are others feeling the same as me!

I think with the YAZ pill this is normal. I have been on Yaz for over a year and for past few months my periods would start later and later and now this month i'm on my new pack and haven't started my period yet. So, from reading what everyone else is saying, I'm thinking it's the hormone DSP or DRSP (something like that) that's probably doing it. Yaz is the only birth control, I think, that uses that particular hormone so it may just be how this hormone reacts with our bodies. Other then that I think this a great pill and for people who really do suffer from PMDD, it will change your life, seriously.

I started taking Yaz after switching from Yasmin in February. I did not get my period the first month after taking Yaz, so just before I was about to start the new pack I took a home pregnacy test and it was negative so I started the next months pack. My periods were already pretty short and light with Yasmin so I figured that Yaz got rid of it all together since it was lower dose and less sugar pills. In April when I still didn't get my period I decided to maybe to stop taking the pill all together to see if I would get my period, so my finance and I just used condoms the 2 times we actually had sex. In May when my period still didn't come I took another test, and sure enough it was positive this time. I got pregnant some time at the begining of March, so I wasn't pregnant enough to show up on the test. So I recommend to those just starting on the Yaz to use condoms for a while until your body is used to it.

I've been on yaz for about 7 months. I have not gained weight (actually I've lost weight but its not cause of yaz, its cause I work out a lot). I have had few bad experiences with yaz. I do get my period sometimes before the white pills and sometimes even after the white pills, but its always light and short! And my ta tas have not grown at all. Overall a good experience and I recommend it to everyone!

At the end of my first month on Yaz, I started spotting at the end of my third week and a light period continued through the white pills to the second day or so of my second pack. Now I'm on my second white pill of the second month and havent seen any bleeding. I havent missed a pill, and so I dont think my chances of pregnancy are very high, but Im concerned because the bleeding isnt consistent with last monthes. If I dont get my period by the end of this week (3 or 4 days into my new pink pills) Im going to take a pregnancy test I think. Any thoughts??

I have been on Yaz for 2 months, and I just started my third pack. I waited to get a period, but no avail.......
I have spotted a bit, but otherwise...nope, nothing.
I have HPTs, but I haven't felt anything different than normal. I just figure my body is like: WTF?
I have had cramps though.

I started YAZ about a week into June. My first period lasted about 15-18 days, and then I started my period in July on time and it lasted about 6 days. In August I started a day late. And September 2 days late. It's now October and I'm approximately 2 weeks late.
Since June, I've only missed like 2 pills, and have made both of them up, properly.
I don't have sex, but I do fool around. So I'm almost positive I'm not pregnant. (The idea still scares the c**p out of me)
Could my late period be because my body is still getting used to the extra hormones?
I've also been stressed a lot lately, could that be playing a role in this too?

I just started YAZ this month. I am on my last white pill and I have not gotten my period. I am also worried about being pregnant because i had sex a few days before i got the pills. I am pretty sure nothing happened but the concern is still there. After reading all the other posts, it seems that I will not get my period for a while. This helped to calm my nerves for now. I hope to get it soon because i do not want to have that a-holes baby! Ugh! I might even tell him I'm late just cuz he hasn't called me back since that day! That's what happen when you have relations with your "best friend." Anyways, if your in a similar situation, try to relax for now and just know everyone else taking YAZ has missed periods too.

^ I wouldn't worry. I've been on Yaz for 2 1/2 years and most of the time I don't start until I'm a couple of pills into the next pack.
I'm somewhat jealous of all you girls who don't have a period on Yaz! Prior to taking it, I had been on no other form of BC and had terrible, long, heavy periods. Yaz has helped, but I would be so happy if it were to take them away. I am very timely with taking it... I set the alarm on my watch and I take it at the same time every day. I have never missed a pill. I'm about to! I did not realize that our pharmacy was going to be closed for Thanksgiving from Wednesday- Saturday. They aren't open on Sunday. So I needed to start a new pack today, Saturday, but haven't been able to get them and won't be able until Monday. It is my understanding that I will take 2 on Monday and then 2 on Tuesday to be caught up.. I am really hating the thought and hoping it won't get my cycle completely crazy. I started on Thursday and am hoping this change in pill scheduling isn't going to make it last for like another week or something.

I just started Yaz a little over a month ago. My doctor had me start taking it because of a hormone imbalance- I haven't had regular cycles for nearly a year. I just started my 2nd pack, but still haven't started my cycle. Is this to be expected? I am just wondering if the Yaz is even going to help regulate my cycles, or is there a chance that I may still not have any cycles?

I've been on YAZ for 2 months and starting my 3rd one after the 4 sugar pills. I had my period start on the 2nd sugar pill and it stopped a week later. Apparently it's normal, your body isn't use to being "controlled" if you want and sometimes you get break troughs. What I'm wondering about is that if you have sex on your last day of talking the pink pill and the next day it's the white pill, are your chances higher to get pregnant ?? But to those who are wondering about the period out of control thing, my doctor says it's normal for the first 2 to 3 months. After I dunno what that is suppose to mean :S
