AF on Yaz - questions
2
Tue, 03-13-2007 - 12:21pm

I posted a few days ago about being a first time user on Yaz, and how my AF was not showing up just yet. And well AF showed up on Sunday, before I started my 2nd pack. The cramps are on and off, and very intense.


Now I am a bit confused. What is the possibility of having an ovulation while on birth control pills? As that would kind of explain why I'm having such bad cramps. And my other question is should I continue with my second pack that I started this past weekend, (Sunday - First Day of my period and first pill from the second pack)?


Confused, any advice or support would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you,


J.

It takes about 3 cycles for your body to get used to a new birth control pill. Hang on that long and continue taking them properly. The side effects may or may not go away but at least the you'll know that you gave yourself long enough to get used to it.
