2010-2-24 YAZ Birth Control Possibly Linked to Hazardous Side Effects

Studies have shown that the ingredients contained in YAZ, Yasmin and Ocella have been linked to various forms of severe side-effects. Reportedly, these side-effects include: heart attack, stroke, deep vein thrombosis (also known as DVT or blood clots), internal organ damage (including gallbladder damage), myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism.

Recently, a large number of YAZ lawsuits have been designated as Mass Tort or Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) cases. Studies show that one of the more serious YAZ side effects, Yasmin, and Ocella use is Deep Vein Thrombosis, which is commonly known as DVT. DVT is a condition characterized by the presence of a blood clot in a vein, usually in the legs or pelvis. DVT does not always show symptoms, but may cause swelling and pain in the affected extremities. If the blood clot dislodges and travels to the lungs, it may cause a Pulmonary Embolism – this potentially fatal condition is commonly known as a PE.
