Could you give an example of women who have suffered an injury after taking Yaz, Yasmin or Ocella birth control pills?
One of our clients, California Yaz User, Susan, was the healthy mother of 3-year-old twins. In 2008, in order to control menstrual pain, her doctor prescribed her the oral contraceptive Yaz. Four weeks and one day after she began taking Yaz, Susan suffered a stroke. Surgeons were forced to remove part of her skull to accommodate the brain swelling, which had already caused her permanent brain damage. Susan was hospitalized for six months. As a result of the brain damage, her IQ has dropped to 77, rendering her mentally handicapped. A counselor had to be brought in to help her twins adjust to the change in their mother. Both she and her family suffer ongoing physical and mental anguish from this event. Lawsuits have been filed nation-wide by women who have suffered severe side effects after using Yaz.
