Default warning from my endo about YAZ

hi ladies -

wanted to share some not so great news about Yaz that i got at my endo... for those of us not currently TTC, its important to know that if you are overweight, Yaz may be less effective than other higher dose pills. my doctor estimated up to 10% less effective, to be precise.

back on yasmin over here.

Good thing to know if I ever have sex again. Of course I'm not married so BC is not about not TTC for me. Condoms are my friends.

I'm TTC and I am on Yaz and never had a problem. I'm going to be off the Yaz next month when I have my first ob/gyn visit for TTC!!
