My skin has always been fairly clear most of the month, but YAZ kept my skin clearer longer.

By far the best thing about it has been the weight loss, and most of it has been stomach fat. I've lost 3 inches in the past two months. I feel like my body is finally working normally.

My initial symptoms were a bit of spotting, tiredness, random leg pains, and strange, intense dreams. These lasted about two weeks to a month.
