Dyazide and medicine

I had to go off Yaz due to it causing my blood pressure to skyrocket, causing horrific acne on my face, excessive mood swings, hot flashes, night sweats, constipation, and the severe weight gain (20lbs). I have PCOS and this truly is not the right medicine for women with PCOS.

Oh, My God! I was doing some research about some medicine I was prescribed by my doctor and was wondering what other people were saying about Yaz Birth Control Pill, and I must tell you I'm very surprised. I've been taking Yaz for exactly 2 years now, before it I've tried pretty much every kind that's on the market and had the most horrific side effects from them, not with Yaz though. I guess every person is different and what works for one doesn't mean it works for everyone else. However, I've been recommending it to everyone I know and people that have tried it - love it. I did experience some mild side effects, though, during my first few months. Before it, I had gained weight cause I stopped smoking a couple of months ago and the 1st month I took Yaz, I lost 15 pounds. I was amazed! I was told before I started it that it's like water pills and will not gain weight from it, my Dr. was right. I had no mood swings anymore, my period wasn't as long (my period come every 21 days and lasted for 8-9 days, with heavy bleeding and crucifying pain, especially the 1st days of my period) and I wasn't crying anymore from the terrible pain, I couldn't even feel like I had my period. The very down side for me was that I started developing brown spots all over my face and they started getting bigger and multiplied, but this pill gave me such comfort that I had to make the sacrifice and used a lot of foundation to cover it. Then all of the sudden my brown spots disappeared instantly on the six month of use and since then I've had no problems with Yaz, whatsoever. My skin is so clear, everyone that meets me compliment me on my complexion and many are so obviously jealous. Since Yaz, I pretty much have no mood swings or emotions whatsoever, I kind of feel like a man, I'm very calm, show no feelings, it takes a lot to get me off balance or to piss me off.
The 1st 3 months I started using it I had brown spotting, sometimes even seemed like bleeding and now I definitely feel like my libido has decreased, but knowing how I was before Yaz and having remembering the most terrible pain I felt when my period comes and no pain killer has ever worked on me, I must definitely say that the few side effects I've experienced are so definitely worth it. I'm not getting off Yaz anytime soon, I completely love it!
P.S. I'm 24 years old, started taking Yaz when I was 22, if you care to know my age. And before Yaz my Dr. has tried to put me on so many different birth control methods for many years, but none has survived me taking it for longer then 2 months until Yaz. I have a condition that can be treated by either birth control methods, sometimes by giving birth to a child or if neither don't work I had to have laser surgery every 2-3 years or even sooner. My doctor tried to put me on different birth controls over the years to full the hormones in my body, but from all I've tried I had such side effects. I was ovulating so much that it hurt to walk, I sometimes felt like I'd break my pelvic. I had constant infections from it and I guess because I live in Florida where the weather is so humid. I've tried changing my underwear every hour or even half hour in the summer to try to prevent getting yeast infection with still no luck. So, with Yaz I was reborn. I haven't had an infection since I started using it.
P.S.2 Oh, and whatever hair I have left unwaxed on my body is way less and no it didn't effect my scalp - I still have thick full hair on my head that grows fast. Plus my leg hair grows way slower then it used to and no I haven't change my hair removal products.
THANK YOU YAZ for making my life so much easier. I'll be forever grateful!
