A friend recommended Yaz to me. I just started taking it, but I've been experiencing continuous bleeding since I began. What does this mean?

Continuous bleeding after taking Yaz is generally caused by unstable estrogen levels. This condition usually improves naturally by the second or third cycle. During short-term oral contraceptive use, it's important to maintain regular rest, a healthy diet, and emotional stability, all of which help in managing the condition. Sexual intercourse must be completely avoided while taking the medication, as doing so may affect contraceptive efficacy and lead to bleeding.
