Yaz and ortho tricyclen

I was just about to start my 4th month today, but wanted to do some research after going to the doctor the other day. I have had "loose" stool ever since I started taking this pill 4th months ago. I never associated my problem with the pill until my doctor had mentioned it and looked it up in the side effects. I have also felt like my head is cloudy and could'nt figure it out. I will get so angry at my husband for absolutely no reason - something would just set me off and I went on a verbal rampage. I bought my pack for this month but now I have decided to just throw them away and go back on ortho tricyclen. I did have mood swings on ortho right before my period, but they were not nearly as brutal as being on yaz. I have also felt depressed. I just had a baby in April and just chalked it up to that. After reading all of these posts though I whole heatedly believe it is yaz.

I'm on my 3rd month of Yaz and I couldn't be happier. I was on ortho-tricyclen for a year and a half but my PMS was getting horrible and I was retaining water like you wouldn't believe (I was actually gaining 10 pounds of water!). Once I switched I get no PMS at all. No aches, no soreness (my boobs would get unbelievably sore and would sting if touched or bumped even in the slightest way), no mood swings. I didn't have any breakthrough bleeding (I'm wondering if it's because I finished my last pack of ortho and went on to yaz on schedule?) and haven't had any side effects EXCEPT for stomach pains the day before I get my period, but it's not so bad that I can't go on with my day (and truthfully, prior to yaz, my stomach gave me problems the whole week before my period -- and that has ceased.). I know some people experience bad things while on yaz, but I have to say, it's working really well for me. Everyone reacts differently to medicines. Read the sheet and report anything to your doctor.

I am here b/c I've been having crying spells with very light (at first no) periods. I've been on Yaz for about 4-5 months and I don't know if it's causing it. I've reviewed my life and don't really have any particular reason to be crying... great family, good life, good job, etc. so... why the crying. I'm here trying to find out if this might be a side effect. The good side? I'm not as irritable as I was before YAZ, while taking Ortho-tricyclen.
