Help! Im also worried and feeling sad about my post pill weight gain. I used to weigh110-114 lbs while on Yaz for about 4 yrs after I have given birth to my daughter (I was eating anything a lot- sweets included and cruised between 110-114). Since stopping yaz last 2015, i gained 2 lbs a month even if i ate healthy, gluten and dairy free stuff. Had my hormones tested and all came bk normal but scans showed a return of pcos. Im now at 117-118 lbs and worried it wont stop. Havent had a decent period in about 6 mos so my doctor placed me bk again on yaz for a month to help me menstruate. Tried everything inc acupuncture, homeopathyc reflex but nothing is helping me esp weight gain, puffy face and bloated stomach. Used to be a size 2 now im a size 4, depressing moment because i cant seem to see myself in the mirror :( tried primrose oil, stuff frm pcos diva, ovasitol, dong quai, vitex but they havent regularized my period nor my weight and water retention. Im abt to give up because nothing works for me not to mention its too expensive :( any suggestion to help with our situation is welcome, btw my doctor gave me metformin 500mg but im only on my 2nd day and gained a lb since starting yaz and metformin 2 days ago.
im also trying ayurveda now. Hope it will work. I also experienced digestion problems during and after yaz. Acid reflux, indigestion
