Started my period today and therefore started my 1st yaz pill, i'm now only spotting, is this normal after just 1 pill? i've never been on the pill

Once a day: I am not sure there is a cause for concern here. You can just continue taking the birth control once per day. Yaz tends to cause light periods which is a nice side effect. Try it for a few months and monitor how your cycles are over the long term.
