Yasmin vs. Yaz?

Hi adjectives - I'm 25, be on Yasmin for going on for 5 years, near no solid side effects excluding some slight consignment gain (5 pounds maybe). Due to giant blood pressure, the doctor requests me to switch to Yaz due to lower hormone level.

Has anyone else made the switch? I've read some fearsome side effects of Yaz, but I'm hoping that if I didn't experience any on Yasmin, after I probably wouldn't experience any on Yaz any. . .

Anyone? Help me get the impression better (or I'll report my doctor I'm not comfortable switching)!

period lend a hand?

My doctor switched me from LoEstrin to YAZ because I be have some troubles beside peri-menopause symptoms and she feel that the change contained by hormones would be paying special attention. I'm very soon on my 2nd week and doing fine...in truth better; I'm not so irritable and I'm sleeping better, and I've LOST 5 lbs!! She said it might also lend a hand next to the borderline HBP I hold (my ending reading be 138/90...but I be PISSED at the time they took my BP!).

I don't know what side effects your friends might own be conversation around, but I've not have a problem.

As for rear legs up contraception, since you're going from one type to another in like peas in a pod relatives of pills (YAZ and Yasmin are loosely chemically related) you shouldn't want anything. Just start the YAZ on alike daylight you would own started your trial pack of pills ordinarily. You'll be fine.

Good luck!

Yeast infection?

I didn't switch to Yaz from Yasmin, but from Depo-provera. I haven't have any problems, but I don't know anyone who made the switch from Yasmin to Yaz.

The hormones are duplicate; the dose is in recent times lower. Also, nearby are solely four days of deskbound pills, which make my term shorter (3 days as anti 5 on Ortho Tri-Cyclen - not low). If you're on the pill because of cramps or weighty period, you may want to stay on Yasmin though because it will drop off the throbbing and burden more than a low-dose pill.

I enjoy friends who switched to low-dose pills, and they give me some counsel for you. You may own some spotting at first adjust to the lower-dose pill, but it go away after a couple months. You will probably thought an increase in blood flow during menstruation. Use a back-up method of birth control for a month of late surrounded by grip. (They adjectives did because they weren't sure if ovulation would crop up switching to a lower dose. Talk to your doctor in the region of this one.)

Hope this help.
