Hi ladies,
Just a quick question for those of you who use Yaz (or who are familiar with pricing for contraceptive pills) - wtf, is it really so expensive?!
My doctor prescribed Yaz to treat my acne (which I'm absolutely positive is being caused by PCOS but he wrote that one off, I'm currently seeking a second opinion), and I was just having a look online to see where I could get it cheapest in town... but it's so, so, so expensive! I used to use Trifeme/Triphasil and it was about $28 for a 4-month supply, please correct me if I'm wrong (I really hope I am) but from what I can see here, a ONE-month supply of Yaz is the same price, 3 months' worth costs a staggering $65!! That's absolutely ridiculous!
My doc prescribed Yaz because he told me I won't put on any weight, I avoid hormonal contraception because Implanon, Trifeme and every other pill I've tried before has made me pack on the pounds - I'm terrified of gaining weight and he assured me that Yaz won't... but at that price, I'd almost be more willing to go back to Trifeme and stop bloody eating

Is Yaz really so expensive? Is it even worth that kind of money? Any quick answers would be greatly appreciated because AF arrived yesterday so I need to commence the pill asap or it'll have to wait another month
TIA!
