A member asked:
Can you let me know how many woman have had gotten blood clots from using yaz (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The risk is small: Blood clot risk from oral contraceptives is very small. However, women who have a history of previous clots and those who are smokers have increased risks and should not use oral contraceptives.
