Hi, I just started taking YAZ today and I was wondering if anyone that is currently on YAZ noticed any weight gain? I was on a different birth control about a year ago and I gained about 5 lbs. which i wasnt to happy about, so I was wondering if anyone has noticed a weight gain on YAZ? Thanks,

Erin

I haven't noticed any weight gain, but I workout pretty regularly and keep a food journal. I recently lost about 20 pounds, and want it to stay gone!

You might do a search for Yaz on this message board. There are some other posts about side effects/weight gain on Yaz.

All in all, I haven't had too many issues with this pill. I hope you like it, too.

I have been on Yaz for 6 weeks and haven't gain any weight yet. The only problem is mood swings and problems wearing my contacts.
