Hello.
Thanks for writing to DoctorSpring.com with your health concern.
Yes, Yaz is given to regulate cycles in PCOS.
You can start taking it on the first or second day of your periods, not midcycle or just before your periods are due.
All the best
Please feel free to discuss further.
Thank you doctor, I have also beem given ovacet. Can I take it with yaz or shoukd I take it few hours before
Hello.
It is better to space out the medicines.
Feel free to discuss further,
Regards
Doctor I am asked to take yaz for 24 days after which I am asked to take 4 day break then resume yaz for 24 days, so I just wanted to know doctor for how long do I have to continue taking yaz and do I need to do blood work after this?
Hello.
For what have you been advised blood work ?
How was PCOS diagnosed for you?
Generally, Yaz is given for 3 - 6 months to regulate cycles.
Regards.
Do I have to take ovacet or only yaz to regulate my cycles is enough? Doctor I was diagnosed with pcod thru usg scansand my hormone tests showed raised lh. ? Thank you
IF the hormonal tests are done, no further bloodwork is required.
Generally, following tests are done - please check if they are complete, or anything is pending -
FSH, LH, TSH, Prolactin, OGTT, DHEAS, Free testosterone, Lipid Profile.
Yaz is enough to regulate cycles, ovacet further helps to correct the hormonal imbalances associated with PCOS.
Take care.
