Yaz Stroke: Hemorrhagic Versus Ischemic Yaz Stroke Side Effects
Women who use Ocella, Yasmin or Yaz birth control may be at a greater risk of some debilitating side effects associated with the estrogen in these birth control. Yaz birth control, as well as Yasmin and Ocella, combine estrogen with a synthetic progestin hormone called drospirenone. Many researchers believe the combination of these two hormones pose a higher risk for blood clots, which could lead to life-threatening outcomes, such as stroke, pulmonary embolism and possibly heart attack. For ladies who have experienced any of these side effects should consider filing a Yaz or Ocella lawsuit to help recover compensation and make up for any missed time at work, medical bills or long term effects from injury.

You'll discover the different types of stroke (i.e. ischemic, intracerbral hemorrhagic and subarachnoid hemorrhagic)in greater detail, as well as the catalysts of all. While Yaz stroke side effects are byproducts of ischemic brain tissue damage, it's worth reviewing the two forms of hemorrhagic stroke to distinguish the differences.

Causes Of Hemorrhagic And Ischemic Stroke
A stroke is described as an disruption in the flow of blood to the brain. There is an network of arteries that feed a continuous supply of blood, oxygen and nutrients to the brain. Any disruption of the supply causes the brain cells to starve. It only takes a few minutes for brain cells to start dying off, once the blood flow is cut off. If the supply of  blood, oxygen and nutrients is not restored quickly the affected brain tissue will start to die. This is the definition of a stroke.

There are two main classes of stroke: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic defines a Yaz stroke. It is caused by an obstruction within one of the blood vessels that supply the brain. The blockage could be due to plaque deposits built up over time. Most typically blood clots occur when plaque migrates from other parts of the body and deposit in an artery in the brain. This is why stroke is listed as a side effect of Yaz.

Hemorrhagic stroke can be categorized into two groups: intracerebral and subarachnoid. Intracerebral is specified as bleeding within your brain. Subarachnoid is defined as bleeding in the space the separates the brain and skull (called the subarachnoid space). An intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke is caused by high blood pressure, essentially when a damaged blood vessel ruptures, and floods the surrounding brain tissue. A subarachnoid hemorrhagic stroke can also be caused by a ruptured blood vessel, but the catalysts could be different. For instance, a head injury can create a rupture in a blood vessel.

Potential Yaz Stroke Problems
The side effects that arise after a Yaz stroke are dependent on the location of the blockage. The severity of the side effects is also dictated by the size of the blockage, and the sum of time that passes before treatment is given.

Any brain damage that is incurred on the right hemisphere of the cerebrum, could lead an individual to experience weakness or paralysis on the left side of their body. Other known ailments are vision deterioration or problems relating to depth perception and object recognition.

Just as damage on the right hemisphere of the cerebrum affects the left part of the body it is the same, but opposite, for damage on the left. Any brain damage on the left will impact the right side of the body. This equally could cause persistent weakness, paralysis and vision problems. Damage on the left side often times affects reasoning, judgment and reading ability as well.
Both sides of the brain control the memory and mood of an individual. For this reason tissue damage on either side can potentially cause problems in both areas, but side effects will manifest differently.
