Yes, you do. It takes a month for birth control pills to be effective.
You’re fine. I think on the 3rd day in a row you’re set. Just review the directions again.
Well, I certainly would. Usually, birth control pills don’t become effective until after a month of being on them. Did you keep the information sheet that came with them? It should say on there how quickly they will be effective. Better some peace of mind, than some headaches later.
You should wait atleast 1 month after you start Yaz, to be on the safe side. Hope i helped. Choose me as best awnser and i’ll be your bestest buddy! JK
Stop taking it!! People have died from using yaz!!
I’d be careful about using Yaz as there was some really bad stuff I heard about it on the news a week or so ago.
Dangers of Yasmin, Yaz and Ocella
National Yasmin, Yaz and Ocella Litigation Attorneys
During the brief time that Yasmin and Yaz have been sold in the United States, hundreds of reports of injury and death have been filed with the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in association with the use of these products. In fact, in less than a five year period, from the first quarter of 2004 through the third quarter of 2008, well over 50 reports of death among users of Yasmin and Yaz have been filed with FDA. These include numerous deaths with reported cardiac arrhythmia, cardiac arrest, intracardiac thrombus (blood clots in the heart), pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lungs) and stroke in women in their child bearing years. Some of the deaths occurred in women as young as 17 years old. Significantly, reports of elevated potassium levels are frequently included among the symptoms of those suffering fatalities while using Yasmin or Yaz.
Over-Promotion of Yasmin and Yaz
Yasmin and Yaz were originally manufactured and distributed by Berlex Laboratories, which was purchased by Bayer Healthcare in 2006. Prior to the sale to Bayer on July 10, 2003, the FDA issued a warning letter to Berlex Laboratories, ordering it to immediately discontinue a misleading television ad for Yasmin. In this ad, the company promoted Yasmin’s fourth generation progestin by stating, "Ask about Yasmin, and the difference a little chemistry can make."
The FDA objected to the characterization that drospirenone was a benefit compared to the progestin used in other COCs, stating, "FDA is not aware of substantial evidence or substantial clinical experience demonstrating that Yasmin is superior to other COCs or that the drospirenone in Yasmin is clinically beneficial. On the contrary, the FDA is aware of the added clinical risks associated with drospirenone . . ." Further, the FDA found that the advertisement "fails to communicate that the potential to increase potassium is a risk" or that "increased serum potassium can be dangerous."
Then again on October 3, 2008, the FDA issued a Warning Letter to Bayer, for another false and misleading advertisement concerning Yaz. The FDA found that Bayer was attempting to broaden the indication for Yaz to include PMS (premenstrual syndrome), as opposed to the less serious condition of PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder.) The FDA reiterated that the marketing was misleading because it promoted YAZ for medical conditions beyond the limits of the FDA approval. But also, the FDA held the ad misleading because it failed to disclose that "YAZ has additional risks because it contains the progestin, drospirenone . . . which can lead to hyperkalemia in high risk patients, which may result in potentially serious heart and health problems."

it takes a full pill pack and a full period until you can have unprotected sex. So if you haven’t finished your 1st pill pack… call your doctor or a pharmacy. I would suggest taking plan B, but it’s not for everyone. Yaz is a weird type of birth control, so it’s best to talk to a professional so you don’t kill yourself.
