WOW!!!. I'm in my 40s.. Ive been on various Bcp for about 10yrs due to a fibroid that causes me to bleed too much and I got anemic. I have been on Yasmin for a year-- and didn't like it so the Dr, suggested I try Yaz. So I did for 6 months.WHOA!! Major muscle tightness that got progressively worse-so much that I couldn't even bend over to tie my shoes. I ached all over, headaches and tired. I also had muscle cramps at the least provocation. I notice that the weeks I had my period and wasn't taking the pill daily, I felt much better. IM very athletic and as a former dancer was very flexible. Ive been of about a week and a half and really feel a difference already. I think Ill Detox and see what my body does. This is crazy.. Anyone else have this???

Thank you so much for posting this, I have been scouring this site for someone else who had the muscle tightness and you are the first one to ever post it (that I have seen anyway). My muscle tightness did not start until after I stopped Yasmine and I now have a host of other symptoms to deal with like joint pain, weakness, I also had the burning that another person mentioned. Can I ask what you are doing to detox?
