Birth Control Pills Posted: 04-19-07 10:39am


my daughter was taking YAZ for two months, and now the doctor is switching her to YASMIN - for insurance reasons. Is there any difference in the two?

Yaz and Yasmin have the same estrogen and progestin, BUT, Yasmin has a slightly higher dose of estrogen than Yaz does. Yasmin also has a normal 7 day placebo week, whereas Yaz has a shorter week.
