Medical Society Finally Admits Yasmin Blood Clots Happen
By John Curran
There are thousands upon thousands of claims that Yasmin blood clot lawsuit attorneys have already filed against the drug’s manufacturer, Bayer. However, more than a year after even the FDA issued a warning about the risks of Beyaz blood clot side effects, one medical society has finally admitted a “minimally increased risk.”
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists perhaps may not be aware that Yaz side effects were one of the most reported conditions in recent years, or that settlements are likely to cost Bayer more than $1 billion in the coming years. In addition to clotting, related issues like Ocella deep vein thrombosis side effects have been demonstrated over the past three years.
They also warned that pregnancy carries a higher risk than Yaz side effects. However, the FDA noted that the risk is about 10 per 10,000 women, while pregnancy causes clots in about 5 to 20 for every 10,000 women. Effectively, the higher end is worse, but the risks are fairly similar. Moreover, the entire point of birth control is to not just avoid Beyaz blood clot side effects, but also pregnancy.
Women who do not want to start a family just yet do have other options that don’t carry Ocella deep vein thrombosis conditions. However, those drugs did carry side effects like hair growth and acne. In addition, all oral contraceptives can affect brain chemistry, causing depression and lack of sex drive.
It is unfortunate that the college has decided to go against the thousands of women who have filed claims with the help of Yasmin blood clot lawsuit attorneys. However, it is promising that they at least admit the risk involved with the class of contraceptives available to women.
