My sister at 39 years old recently died from the condition called pulmonary thromboembolism caused by the use of Yaz. Please if you are taking this pill and are experiencing anything negative from it, get off of it immediately. I am currently seeking legal counsel for my sisters death, I believe it is unfair that a product like this can take a human life, and no-one will be held liable. I have been told that it will be virtually impossible to bring a lawsuit against a product that has been FDA approved. My sister left behind three children who love, miss and still needed her. If anyone can give me some type of direction on how to bring a lawsuit against the manufacturer of this product please contact me asap.

In March 2008, at age 39, I was put in the hospital for 15days for a large blood clot in my portal vein, it sits at the opening of my liver. I had been taking YAZ for less than a year.The clot could not be dissolved or removed. Now, 9mths later, I still take many medications for pain and blood thinners. The only conclution was the YAZ OR a low c protein and s protein that was thrown over the limit by the birth control. This could not be proven without taking me off the blood thinners and not even MAYO clinic would do that. So much good is said about YAZ, I never even thought a lawsuit or legal action would be possible.
