birth control pills "Yaz" for acne?
« on: June 26, 2009, 09:10:50 am »
Is anyone here taking Yaz? This was prescribed to me by my dermatologist for my acne because I usually break out just before I get my period and during my period. This is the first time I'm taking birth control pills, gusto ko lang malaman kung may long term side effect ba ito?

Yaz ba is "Yasmine"?

Diane was prescribed to me by my OB since PCOS ako and was told na Diane is also known as a 'beauty pill'..so true. naging clear, soft and supple ang skin ko lalo sa area ng mukha ko (although hindi ako ma-acne). Same effect din ang Althea pills and mas cheaper ng almost 50% sa Diane.

^Yes sis or derma pwede rin. Although like sa case of sis kutingpie, she has PCOS which is a gynecologic condition with acne as one of its symptoms kaya OB-Gyne nagprescribe. And you cant just take it...may specific dosing schedule and instructions kasi.

un ng sis eh un din ang pinagtataka ko. wala naman din akong palya sa pag inom, kaya nga naisip ko baka effect na to ng matagal na paggamit ko. kung pareho din ba [textspeak!] sinasabi ng iba, na pag ang gamot matagal ng ginagamit, in the long run daw nawawala na effect sau. klangan din nagpapalit ng brand.

sa ngayon di ako nag take though dapat nag start na ko ng new pack. intay ko na lang na magkaron ako at shift na lang siguro ako sa yaz.

mga sis, kung meron naman kayong idea, pls. we need yr advise kung ano ang tamang dapat gawin. pls pls pls.

I used diane35 for 4 years until magdecide kami ng hubby na mag baby number 2. i got pregnant naman kagad. so after breastfeeding, i went back to diane. pero for some reason, lagi akong nagkakaka yeast infection. so the ob said that diane might be the culprit. she told me to just switch to injectables. pero gusto ko ang diane kasi it prevents my skin talaga from breaking out. so she said switch nalang to yasmin pero if i get yeast infection again, mag injectables na daw.

for the past 4 years naman na gamit ko ang diane hindi ako nagkakaganun. after lang my 2nd pregnancy. so far ok naman ang yasmin. kaso nga ang mahal kesa sa diane. wala namang sinabi ang ob na after awhile mawawala ang effect ng pills sayo.

Haaay sis Tulip. Sana nga magdilang anghel ka. Till now im still monitoring at plan ko weekly ko sya i tsek para lang ba mawala din sa isip ko pagdududa until such time na dumating na magkaron uli ako. I'm still hoping na next month magkaron ulit ako kahit na mahina sya, uumpisahan ko na talaga [textspeak!] pack ng Yaz. di kc ako pedeng mag consult sa doctor dito, kc nasa middle east ako. mdyo mahigpit. salamat sa pagse share ng knowledge.

Mga sis, kun sakaling may idea pa kayo or based on yr experience paki post naman please. Very relevant para sakin mga infos na manggagaling sanyo...

Thanks so much...

anna banana: talagang mas mahina ang menstruation pero i think, not to a point na wala...

yaz is about 700, diane about 500, althea siguro nasa 200 (im not sure).

effective talaga for acne...
