lower back pain, hair loss,joint pain, complicated migraines, vertigo, palpitation, hormonal imbalances (lowered DHEA, increased aldosterone-it affected my adrenal glands and kidneys), epigastric pain, bleeding, extreme fatigue, anxiety,pulmonary failure etc. I had to go through ER, 2 CT scans ( abdominal and brain), 2 MRIs, neurologist, endocrinologist, GI, gyno etc. I threw my Yaz pills in the trash after the first CT scan that revealed multiple tumors in my liver and left adrenal gland ( i took the pills for about 3 and 1/2 years)... the past 6 months have been a hell, but there are no more migraines, anxiety or other neurological symptoms at this point. By the way, one of my best friends who just started on Yaz recently ended up in the ER last week with a blood cloth in her left lung. Please stay away from that drug!

how can you be so sure that it is the pil that caused the tumors in your liver? I just bought yasmin and am using it for like 5 days now. what i have noticed though is irregular hart rate/weird palpitation and a light headache but i am unable to tell if its the pil that is causing it. 5 days is a real short period to conclude anything. Just worrying a little bit. i am thinking now what can be done ..cause other pils have same hormones and side effects. i dont think that the pil is good at all in the first place. but which one is considered the safest one anyways?

I think it's safe to assume that since Yaz was the only drug i took in the past 5 years and all my previous medical screenings were normal, that Yaz was the cause...
