I started on yaz three months ago, at first I didnt notice any changes, but lately I have not been able to control my emotions. I cry for every and any reason, I get mad and upset over things that dont even make sense to me, and i have been making my fiance miserable. I was starting to think I was just crazy and just incompatible, and I couldnt recodnize myself. I started freaking out because I didnt understand why I was always angry and upset, and I felt like a completely different person. After doing my research I realized that it had been the pill all along. I will def. be swiching! Does anyone know of any good pill with less side effects?

Hey,
I never took Yaz, but I know in general dryness can be a side effect of many BC pills.  The change in hormones affects cervical mucous and vaginal secretions.
