Yaz is a combination of two hormones, drospirenone (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). These two hormones work together to prevent pregnancy by:
Stopping ovulation (preventing the release of an egg) and reducing hormone changes linked to ovulation
Thickening cervical mucus to make it harder for sperm to reach an egg
Thinning the uterine lining, making it less likely for a fertilized egg to implant
Yaz works to treat PMDD by balancing hormone levels to reduce symptoms like mood swings, irritability, and bloating.
Yaz also treats acne by lowering testosterone levels. This leads to less oil production and clogged pores.
