i've seen many horrible stories on here about yaz and hair loss..kind of ironic since my doctor prescribed me it because i was already having hair loss...i've taken it for a month and it seems to be making it worse...has anyone actually had SUCCESS wit it? i'm taking spiro too. thanks

Dear Sonnet,

Did you continue taking Yaz and spiro? If so, has the hair loss subsided? I hope so.

i haven't updated in over a month, i'm still taking the yaz and sprio. and it still seems to be getting worse...hair shedding has increased greatly

Dear Sonnet,

My heart goes out to you. I have read that it takes three months before your body adjusts to the change in hormones. What has your doctor said? Have you had any other side effects? Are you taking any supplements?

thank you. the only supplement i take is biotin. i've reached my 3 month mark with these medicines, but my doctors seem to not think the hairloss is no big deal and just sort of blow it off which drives me CRAZY

forgot to respond about the side affects. the first like month i started taking them i was VERY depressed and cried all the time, had heart palpatations, and badd leg cramps. now i don't have any side affects aside from my hair loss not getting better.
