I didn't have my period for 6 months and after testing (blood work and ultrasounds) my gyn said it looked like I could have PCOS. To try and regulate my periods she prescribed me Yaz. Today was my first day taking it and I'm wondering if the side effects will regulate after a while or if I should speak up now. I experienced severe mood swings, getting extremely hot (I already have a slightly higher body temperature than normal and get warm easily), nausea, and headaches. It also made my head feel fuzzy and I couldn't concentrate properly. It severly affected my work and as I work in retail I can't have the kind of mood swings I had today. I took some ibuprofen for the headache and it got rid of the headache and slightly reduced the severity of the mood swings, but didn't get rid of them completely. I will keep monitoring (I'm off the next couple days thank god or I wouldn't take them again) but is this something I should be concerned about and call my obgyn?
