Hello, I have been taking Yaz for several years to treat PCOS. Considering that the included progestin has an anti-androgenic effect, it manages to control 100% of my PCOS symptoms (acne, hirsutism). However, it completely cuts off my libido and this is a problem for me. What other contraceptive should I try? I have already tried Alesse and found it too weak... Also, I would like to keep the tablets and not the patch/ring.

Hello, thank you for your question
Indeed, decreased libido is a problem that should not be overlooked. Fortunately, there are other options, both hormonal and non-hormonal, to help control your PCOS symptoms. Your pharmacist may be able to contact your doctor and suggest alternatives based on your medication history and preferences.
I hope I have been helpful to you, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions!
