Recently Stopped the Pill

**KatieE** · 08-12-2010 11:11 PM

I stopped taking Yaz after being on it since November on July 24th due to a random allergic reaction. Since the hives I developed would not go away after two steroid shots and starting a steroid pack, I was taken off both Yaz and Protonix to see if it would help. The hives went away and everything was fine. But today I noticed white discharge in my underwear as well as a larger amount than usual while going to bathroom this evening. Is this just from ovulating or should I ask my doctor? Thank you so much for you help in advance

Yeah, I think it is just ovulating too. I was just worried because it seemed like such a large amount compared to usual. I think it might have been from stopping my pack to abruptly.

I just got off Yaz almost 3 weeks ago. I've had a little spotting and light brown discharge but nothing abnormal. I was told this is a common side effect. An increased amount is also a common side effect of coming off the pill. I don't think you have anything to worry about, unless it changes smell.
