Mood swings Yasmine to Yaz HELP!!?!
Question: I took Yasmine for 2 years and stopped because they were giving my depression and anxiety. After about a year I tried orthotricycolin but it didn't help regulate my period so I stopped.
I went to the gyno and she gave me Yaz today. She said that it may cause me to have depression but to notify her the moment I feel any bad side effects.
Has anybody who has had moodswings with another birthcontrol and switched to Yaz find that it works? In other words, when you switched to Yaz did you still have mood swings?
