For those readers out there who are not sure if they need to contact a lawyer because of the health problems they are having while taking Yaz birth control, our Yaz injury lawyers would like to share the story of one of our clients.A 41-year-old woman from New Jersey was given samples of Yaz birth control from a local women’s’ clinic on March 6, 2009.Shortly thereafter, on May 28, 2009, the woman was admitted to the hospital where she was treated for a pulmonary embolism while taking Yaz birth control, or blood clot in the lung. She remained in the hospital for seven days and now must take the blood thinners Heparin and Coumadin.

The woman must also make weekly trips to the hospital to have her times checked.
