I'm asking this here because well all the medical sites haven't wrote me back and my doctor is a...well ya know... So hopefully someone can help me out..I've been doing alot of research but I'm running in circles. I'm on the Grapefruit Diet because I have a lot of weight to lose and that seems to be the key in my family...BUT I'm also taking YAZ-the new birth control pill. I'm starting to lose weight but I noticed that Grapefruit juice is listed on the "avoid" list for Yaz. Some sites tell me that its ok to eat grapefruit because it doesn't affect the "not getting pregnant" part of the pill...but other sites say it can... So which is it? Can I get pregnant now that I'm eating a ton of Grapefruit or am I still good? Please Help ASAP!!!

What site listed it as a "dont eat"- the only thing I can think of that would make that worse would be the acidity in the grapefruit juice? Although I really dont know.. good luck?
