So i've been taking Yaz for three month now. Being uninformed of the side effects I dealt with them since they creaped in in a slow progression. Until couple of days ago I went completely crazy, broke up with the man I love since I dint know that zero sex drive is one of the side affects of Yaz. In three month my sex drive went completely down what at the time I thought I am just not attracted to my boyfriend anymore.... however I am not attracted to sex in general, it actually makes me sick just thinking about it. Besides the irrational behavior, I've experienced and anxiety attack, complete lack of energy, mood swings, increased hart rate, signs of depression and due to my insane behavior I have a lot of cleaning up to do in my personal life. Thank you for I've found this website, after I thought I am going crazy I did some research. I am coming off the pill today and I wish the best of luck to all the women who take it and the men who have to deal with those women.

Dre1127 - i feel the same way, i only have 3 more pills to take and im off this stupid pill forever. Im afraid my boyfriend will break up with me cause of the zero sex thing, but believe me thats not the only reason why im getting off yaz. I switched 5 months ago from yasmin to yaz. yasmin wasn't bad, but i did have some problems with it. atleast i was someone interested in my boyfriend. im going all natural and using the old school method, enough with confusing my poor poor hormones!!! how can a pill cause someone to think their not interested in sex when they have a very good looking man that they have been in love with for years?

Brerohodo - I have been taking yaz for 1yr now, i also experienced no sideeffects until later on. The sex drive left me completely and I also gained weight that i CAN NOT get off. I finally stopped taking yaz 3wks ago and like magic sex drive is back and weight is falling off! NO MORE YAZ for me. Although i LOVED how it helped me with my acne :(

Elizabethhenderson - well.. i am so glad to read this. i truly thought there was something wrong with me. i have been on Yaz for 1.5 months and have been feeling down, depressed, what the point of life, cranky, moody and teary all the time. I am lifeless and all i want to do it stay at home. i have the most amazing husband who is very attractive, but i have not even felt like being intimate or having sex with him. I am attracted to him, but have been second guessing this lately. we have been together for 12 years and only just got married 1.5 months ago.. i have NEVER thought this before... i have been so down and talking to my husband about how i 'just dont feel right'. i feel a bit crazy and had suicidal thoughts. this is not me AT ALL.. i also have gained weight since being on this even though i am a gym junkie and exercise 2.5 hours a day and east super clean (living this lifestyle bring me happy vibes and i always feel great). But not for the last 1.5 months. i have put on 4 kgs to be exact and they are not coming off either. i am going off Yaz and will give you an update on my mental and sexual state of mind in a few weeks. i just want to be back to normal me. i knew something was not right.. but i just couldn't explain it. i feel releaved that its a drug i am taking that is making me this way.. and not anything else.

Pbv - wow! what a relief to read all of these comments. i am wondering if anyone has any feed back on how they felt when they came off it, how long it took to feel 'normal' again, and at what point during the pills cycle did you stop taking them? do you need to wait to the end or just stop taking them whichever ones you are on? thank you!

Alantz - Wow! So glad to find this site. I'm 49, perimenopausal and was put on this 4 months ago. I'm having heart problems, nervousness, headaches, not sleeping, cold all the time, weight that won't come off (I'm a personal trainer), weakness, no sex drive ... I'm getting off! Good luck ladies.
