Yaz

Unexpected Side Effects for Women on Birth Control

For years millions of women have been convinced by various ads to switch to Yaz birth control pills. Unfortunately, many of these women have suffered from mild side effects like nausea and cramping while countless others have been dealing with more severe side effects:

  • Migraines;
  • Vaginal yeast infections;
  • unusual vaginal discharge;
  • Irregular non-menstrual bleeding;
  • Hair loss;
  • Less sexual desire;
  • High blood sugar;
  • Anaphylactic reactions (itching, hives, difficulty breathing and face, lips, tongue swelling);
  • Breast lumps or discharge;
  • Fainting;
  • Arm and leg numbness;
  • Irregular heart beat; and/or
  • Inflammatory bowel disease.

Although the makers of Yaz have spent millions on new ads correcting old promises, the FDA continues to warn that women taking Yaz are at increased risk of blood clots. You can view a short video of an ABC Nightline Investigation on the birth control pill, and its effects, here.

Thousands of women are suing the drug manufacturers either independently or jointly through MDL No. 2100, In re Yasmin And Yaz (Drospireone) Marketing, Sales Practices, and Relevant Products Liability Litigation.

Carolyn Frank and her firm represented me on a workers compensation injury case, under the defense base act. She did a excellent job from the moment I contacted her until 3 years later the case was settled. Every benefit I was entitled too, Carolyn fought hard to secure. E-mails and phone calls were always returned promptly. Definitely 5 star rating. Daniel

I can't express how grateful I am for Elizabeth Estrada, attorney, and Elizabeth Cantin, secretary, for all the hard work in order to defend me in my time of need. My lawyer and secretary spent time explaining each step and what was to be expected. Because of this I felt a part of the whole process and understood what was going on. Thank you so much for all your hard work!

I would like to thank the staff of Friedman Rodman Frank & Estrada, P.A. The staff is professional. My attorney, Ronald Rodman, was responsive towards my email and a great advocate on my behalf for my car accident. I highly recommend this office. I hope that I will not get in a car accident again, but if I do, I'm calling Mr. Rodman. Orlando R.
