I have been on Yaz for almost 2yrs. and having an issue a week or so before my period of my lower back being tight and extremely stiff where I sleep on my floor at night aroung this time. My Dr. gave me water pills to alleviate the pain. (doesn't work) Anyone else experiencing this?.

you really should not take a diurectic as yasmin already contains a diuretic and taking 2 could be very dangerous,i am surprised your doctor did not realise this! if you are having back pain or muscle spasms you could try taking some magnesium as bcp's are known to deplete your natural vitamin and mineral stores. please also drink as much water as you can per day to avoid cellular dehydration.i would speak to the doctor again if i were you and mention that yasmin already has a diuretic element to it,it is an analogue of spironalactone.
