I have been on Yaz for about 6 months now and I was switching from Ortho-tri cyclen lo(spelled that wrong for sure!) anyways over the first few months my periods slowly got shorter and lighter and for the past 2 months I have had no period at all. I have taken an HTP and it was negative and I was starting to get worried, but this makes me feel a lot better!

I've been on yaz for almost 3 years now. My period used to normally come on saturday (4th) and be completely normal except no cramps. mine were horrible before i went on yaz i would miss school and work but since being on yaz i have not have any. I did not gain any weight but went from a B cup to a C cup and now a D cup over 3 years and i weight exactly the same. However my period slowly started coming later and later and getting lighter and lighter. In the past 6 months i have not had my period at all. Im glad to see im not alone and can stop buying HPT's just to find out im not preggers. I am going to my md next week just to make sure there is nothing else going on. I do't mind not having cramps, breakouts or my period. :-D I havent bought tampons in over two years cause it was so short now gone. I love yaz, i was WAY emotional on ortho-tri- cyclen lo and still had cramps.

I went on Yaz for two months and then stopped. My hair started falling out, my breasts increased in size and are very tender I also had Ammenorrhoea (no period). I have been off it now for 5 weeks and my symptoms are the same. I also took a pregnancy test to be sure that I am not pregnant. I wrote to Bayer which is the Pharma company that sells this product. They responded by saying that these are all side effects of this particular birth control pill but some ie:(hair loss) are not written in the booklet but in the greater "product booklet" which I should have requested from my doctor. Jeez! I have been on and off various pills for the past 20 years and never had any problem until now. I know it is great not to have a period for a lot of the ladies writing on this site but I would ask lots of questions what are the effects of this two or three years down the track particularly if you are young and haven't had a family yet?

yeah i'm glad i found this place,
this is my third month on Yaz, and my third month of no menses.
Between the cost of the pill($60 a pack) and the cost of the four pregnancy tests ($45) i should just pay for my husband to have a vasactomy and forget this mess!
are you all gaining weight too? how much?

I am a young eighteen year old. I just switched to yaz a few months ago. For the past few months my periods were never starting and stopping on time...Then this month I had just a little blood and it wasn't really anything to like talk about! y'know? This is something that i am not used to with my body. I am kinda worried and not really sure what I should do? :-( I feel really silly!!

I've been taking yaz for almost a year now. It took a couple months for my cycle to regulate and then I would always get it on the 3rd white pill and it would end on the 2nd pink pill of the new pack. Then in november or december, I was on the first pill of a new pack, and dropped it somewhere in my car, so I just took the next pill. Well my boyfriend said eventually I would have to skip a pill, and a couple weeks later I did. It screwed up my cycle obviously, and the next two cycles I got started before the white pills, and ended on the 2nd pill of the new pack. But now, I'm on the third pack after that happened, or just started the fourth today I should say, and all I got in the way of a period was spotting barely on the 2nd white pill, and a migraine on the 4th white pill. Reading all these replies I guess I just need to take a test to reassure myself. But sounds like it's normal. :/

I have been on YAZ for almost 3 years now and I love it. I stopped having periods the first month I was on it and haven't had one since. My OBGYN checked me for menopause and I am normal. She recommended once that I stop taking YAZ until I started my period to make sure I could start one. Everything worked so 2 months later I got my period and I went back on YAZ. I spotted the first month back on it and now I am back to no periods at all again. I am not complaining I love not having a period and the horrid cramps I was suffering from. I do have major leg cramps from the potassium with not enough calcium but I just take calcium pills when I need them. And yes I have to agree with the other comments, my boobs have grown a full cup size. I also have breast pain in my right boob near my armpit. I asked my doctor about it and she said being on the pill and drinking coffee can trigger the pain. She was right, if I cut the caffeine out it goes away. I love YAZ over all and it helps with my PMDD and PCOS symptoms.

I'm on the end of my fifth blister pack of Yaz after changing from a lower dose pill.
For the first two packs I experienced no bleeding at all, then nearing the end of the third pack I bled consistently for about two and a half weeks - quite heavily. I have not experienced any bleeding since then but have been very careful to take my pill every day.
All the research I have done seems to say that it is very unlikely I am pregnant (I took a pregnancy test after the first time I didn't have my period, it was negative) but I am still worried. I've experienced some nausea and I feel a bit bloated but there has been no weight gain.
Any advice?

I'm just finishing up my second month/pack of Yaz, took the first white pill today, and there is NO period in sight! :S In the first month I had this brown discharge basically half the month and then got a pretty light period right on time, cramps and all. Now my breasts have been very sore for the last couple weeks but have had no other symptoms of a period... I'm pretty much freaking out because I have been having sex w/o condoms over the past couple weeks. I've taken the pill right on time, except for a couple days ago when I took it 2 hours late. But still... I'm really concerned, and wondering when/if I should take a HPT.

i'm 22, fairly petite, 5'4" and 120. and have always had a light period. i just started yaz last month and will be starting my 2nd pack in 2 days. this being said i've been on the white pill for 3 days now and just got my period. in my "regular cycle" which is referring to my old BCP a 28day pack would allow my period starting about the 4th white pill(wednesday) out of 7. come starting a new pack my period would have been done already on saturday night.
on yaz, my period is so light i thought i almost skipped it altogether! no worries.. ladies hang in there. and think positively... you would be spending more on tampons/pads (despite the stress... i'll admit i was a little worried for while because it took so "long" to get my monthly visitor.) love peace and chicken grease :-)
