yaz weight loss drugs

This is my first week on these two medications. I was told that I have PCOS a week ago. I was wondering what side effects you have had from these drugs. Over the past year, I have gained 50 pounds by changing nothing at all. This gain happened while I was doing 1.5 hr cardio a day with weights & eating around 800 calories. (5'4, 160 now). My Dr. told me that Metformin would help with lowering my weight.Yet, I'm now on Yaz.

Question for anyone out there using the birth control pill Yaz. Has ya'lls period stopped completely? Need to know if that is normal.

From anxiety to gaining weight, I actually experienced hair loss, white spots on my skin and countless other issues. I personally would not recommend Yaz to anyone, but it all depends on your body. I hope it works out for you though, good luck.

I am a 140 lb, 5'4", 23-year-old female. My weight fluctuates a lot (30 lbs), but I have been at the same weight for about 2 years now. I am not eating poorly I am not extremely stressed, I just started working out again in January (medium exercise for around an hour a day) and I have not been sexually active since January 2012. However, I have not had my period in over a year.

I never considered mirena, or, any iud for that matter, could cause weight gain because it does not go into the blood stream. Before this i was using Yaz and was steadily loosing weight on a good eating and exercise plan. I just went today, day 11 and had it removed. Does anyone know how long it will take to loose this weight? I can't believe the amount of weight i have gained in 10 days!! Any suggestions would be great!

t been able to eat correctly, but yeah I read about the birth control, it does make you not hungry and loss weight, but I look fat, but I haven't gained any weight, and I just saw my doctor too! I have gone in to ask her if I am able to have kids, but found out that I have PCOS, and I had told her that I was feeling sick, and nauseas and vomited a few times, she said to try and eat while taking it, but it has helped a little. But I am only able to eat one meal a day! So, help me?

I have dedicated a website for women who are currently or previously taken Yaz Birth Control. This is a support group for women to see the pro's and con's of taking this prescription. Please take a moment to view YazForum ******* and post a comment of your experience while taking Yaz. Thank you.

what is amaigrissante? how dose it help weight loss and what are its side effects?

I asked about metformin and she said that it was a dangerous drug and some actually gain weight on it (not what i need!). She said PCOS would be helped by YAZ b/c because it would trick my body into thinking it doesn't need to produce estradiol which will lower my levles, which right now are high, and that it will balance out progesterone.

OH My God!!! I am so disgusted with the way I feel and Look!!

so after i had my son which he is now 6 months old i have been on the mirena for 3 month and i havent had a problem exept im noticing being hungry often....? yaz would have ok if i didint have hair loss and got prego and its funny bc i met someother female who had got prego off the yaz also... bu **** a good skin and weightloss pill!

It has made me lose my period too and extreme hair loss. Quit Yaz Now...it's dangerous!!!

That is a pretty quick weight loss from Feb 20th to now. That alone can be very hard on your body......How is your appetite?

I would research other methods of weight loss as opposed to going into drugs, where the side effects will eventually wear off anyway. Best wishes.

Also to add as a note while on Yaz I also noticed a significant increase in hair loss, along with insane cramps that increased and became more intense with each passing month. It's said that Yaz helps with monthly mood swings, but I'd rather be an insane crazy lady with clear skin a few days each month than an agreeable nice lady hiding in my house because my skin makes me look like a monster!

Well, it seems like there is no other cause than genes to this (probably), but since I really dont like being this underweight, are there any drugs that could help me gain weight (in other words eat more/ slow metabolism). Like some steroids or something? Again, I have tried the "eat more" thing, but it doesnt seem to work very well. At first I do gain weight, but I get pretty bad diarrhea ETC. from eating too much.

birth control does make you gain weight. i hear it's as much as 5- 15 lbs!

A couple of weeks ago I decided to go off the pill (Yaz) because I was wondering if it was making me feel sick (I've been taking the pill for over a year now). I was just wondering a) if anybody else has felt sick on Yaz; b) if going off it helped; and c) how long it took for the pill to get out of your system? Thanks for any help. (I'm 18).

Here is a little something I pulled up while researching yaz problems Yaz and Yasmin are different from other birth control pills available in the United States because they contain drospirenone, a progestin which can increase blood potassium levels and increase the risk of: * Heart Attack * Stroke * Blood Clots: Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE) * Gallbladder Problems * Kidney Damage or Kidney Disease * Cardiac Arrhythmias * Sudden Death Call y

I also have the exact same symptoms. I feel so bloated all the time and since being on Yaz for over 3 years now, I'm weighing more than I ever weighed in my life. I started taking Yaz right after I had my daughter and I just can't seem to lose the weight. I've tried taking other brands but did not like it. I'm actually thinking about resorting to the ring.

I have been on yaz for 3 months now. I am tired all the time. I can't sleep at night but can't get out of the bed in the morning. I have been have cramps all over my body. My legs,side,face, and every where in my muscles. I went to the Dr for blood work. They said my thyroid is not working right so they did more blood work. I am tired of hurting all the time. My OBGY said its not yaz. But I am worried. I am 40 and I'm not use to feeling like this.

I would suggest to talk to her gyn and maybe start on Metformin. This will help with weight loss and also the symptoms of pcos.
