Question about Yaz birth control?

Question

How long after you took your last hormone pill did you start your period? Just wondering. This pill is new for me, I'm not used to taking a few extra hormone pills the week of my period starting.

Answer 1

The birth control pill. Yaz,  has been linked to life-threatening side effects such as strokes, blood clots,  and heart attacks. Since 2004, at least 50 deaths have been reported in women taking Yaz and contraceptives made with similar ingredients.
