For Birth Control "I've been off Beyaz almost a year now and have had only two cycles. I was on the pill a little over five years and went off of the pill due to weight gain, anxiety, and always feeling bad. I haven't had a period since March 2017, which results in me constantly having to take pregnancy tests to make sure I'm not pregnant (which I'm not). I wish I'd never started taking it. Please make sure your OBGYN explains all of the side effects before and after the pill."

For Acne "This pill has made my acne much worse and given me bad depression. I have noticed slight weight gain and worsening of allergies."

For Birth Control "I've been on Yaz for a while and had no problems, and a few months ago I switched to Beyaz and noticed weight gain, so I switched. Other than the weight gain, it's not bad birth control."

For Birth Control "I just started taking it, and I am one week into it, and I have already gained 6 pounds because my hunger has increased! But other than that, it is a great pill."

"I have more breakouts than before and have gained 11 pounds in the first month. On a good note, my periods have become regulated. I also have been moodier."

For Birth Control "I have been on Beyaz for 6 months, and as a birth control, it works as it should. When I first started, I had no symptoms. But I gained around 10-15 pounds, which, for my size, isn't a bad thing, but the fact I don't fit in my pants comfortably now stinks. For my cramps, it didn't do a single thing. I still get cramps that make me want to curl in a ball all day. While my period is finally regular, it seems a little heavier. I was told it would help my cramps and period, but I guess my body doesn't like that."
