Question strange yaz problem

i've been on yaz for about 3 months. i had always had ecessively* oily skin and would always sweat alot. sincei've taken the yaz though, it's gone in the complete opposite direction..my skin is so tight and dry and i got a rash around my eyes. has anyone else had a problem with this?

hey there,

I take Yaz as well, and I have had the opposite. I have had oily skin my whole life, and now since taking the yaz, its made it worse...very strange, considering it is supposed to do the opposite...

Just thought i would share my experience!

take care,
ariesladi25

The progestin in Yaz has the same properties as Spiro, and Spiro can definitely dry out your skin. Also, sometimes BCPs can cause eczema, so you might want to tell you doctor or see a Dermatologist about the dry skin around your eyes.
