Taking Yaz or Yasmin for Your PMDD?
How many women know Yaz Flex, Yaz, Yasmin and Beyaz are 99% similar in composition? ~Holly Grigg-Spall, author of the Sweetening the Pill blog and book.
If you are taking Yaz or Yasmin for your PMDD symptoms, you need to read this. So many of you have written to tell me you are being told the PMDD symptoms you experience are "all in your head." Well, if you are experiencing any of these reported mental, physical, or emotional side effects for Yaz or Yasmin, don't let anyone tell you they are "all in your head."
If you choose to take these drugs, then do so knowing the risks. Don't be taken by surprise.
Another quote from Holly: Monash University in Australia is one of the few facilities to have undertaken research into the correlation between birth control pills and depression. Professor Jayashri Kulkarni found that women on the pill were twice as likely to experience depression, anxiety, and mental numbness.
Sound familiar? If so, you have a choice to make.
But at least it's an informed choice.
