1st day of menstruation and after taking yaz pills since i have pcos, in the next day my menstruation stop. is it normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: It is normal to have super light periods while on birth control pills like Yaz. They can even be so light that they are only spotting or only last a day or two. This is particularly true with pills like Yaz that only have a hormone free interval (placebo pills) of 4 days instead of 7.
