I thought Yaz was a dumb enough product as is, back when it was just a crappy birth control pill with delusions that it could cure PMS. But then they got busted by the FDA and had to issue a retraction commercial, and now they’re just ridiculous. I love the way they act as if it’s no big deal that they’ve been ordered to stop lying about the benefits of their drug. Yaz isn’t as bad as the pills that claim to stop your period, while still admitting that you will experience heavy spotting where your period used to be (and for the uninitiated or male, spotting just means getting your period). But it’s still annoying, especially because their name sucks. Yaz. Sounds like a newfangled way to say “yeah” to me.
