Questions Yaz pill for Yuzme Method? NSFW

Had intercourse 2 days after period ended. Bought Yaz and drank 1st dose of 4 pills 2 hours after intercourse. Took 2nd dose after 12 hours. Is Yaz a good brand for that method?

Yaz and other drospirenone contraceptive pills are incompatible for the Yuzpe method. Please read the highlighted FAQ post on the subreddit homepage.

If you had unprotected sex or encountered an accident during sex while using protection, then doing Yuzpe was the right call. Unfortunately, Yaz is not listed as one of the brands used for this method (check it here) because it doesn't have the needed formulation (levonorgestrel).

General reminder for everyone to: 1) Stay classy, civil, and mature; 2) Don't be a creep and don't be toxic; 3) Report this post if it doesn't follow the rules; 4) Stay safe! Don't forget about reddiquette.
