YAZ has 24 days of "real" pills as opposed to Yasmin/traditional 21 days of active pills. Supposed to make AF shorter, lighter. IMO the lower estrogen would help/reduce acne, bloating, weight, moodiness, headaches more so than higher estrogen. *probably* hairloss too--there's a link between higher/excess estrogen & hair loss (see sig for studies).
Some women do have breakthrough bleeding on lower estrogen pills, though. Try it out & see!
Both have the same progestin & same amount: 3 mg drespirenone
