Started taking Yaz in December and then Yasmin in May for menustral cramps. Within a month after taking Yaz she started with stomach cramping and diarrhea. Her gynecologist says this is not a side effect of the pill. The Gastroenterologist agrees and says its IBS. Of course he diagnosed her without any tests just from history. Funny thing is we have told him when she is on her period she has no symptoms but just about every day otherwise.

Have your Dr. do an ultrasound on your daughters stomach. IBS systoms are also symtoms of Polycystic Ovaries
