Dear Chloe,
Thanks for the link. I am definitely going to ask my gyn about it. I don't need the bc, but definitely need some help with the PMDD and bone density. It would be nice to get off of the Klonopin, too. Keep me posted on how it is working for you.
Blessings,
Chris A.
> Chris,
> Yes, Yasmin is new. It came out in July of 2001. There seems to be very little info on Yasmin, itself. Alot of the data is just the usually bcp literature with a tiny paragragh about Yasmin tacked on. I can't remember the exaxt website, but I do have the link to monogragh. My thoughts are a mess tonight, and I can't seem to sting to gether a decent sentence...

> For your situation, all I would say is, give it a try. It's not like the shot or IUD where it is somewhat "permanent" after you chose to try it. With Yasmin, if you take a pill and don't like how you feel, you can always quit it, and keep on with your search. Just know Yasmin is being marketed to treat pms, and they are shooting for the label to say Yasmin treats pmdd. So it's definitely worth a shot. Have you gone to google.com and down a search on "Yasmin and depression"? You must do the two together, or you will get alot of hits about a women in the middle east named Yasmin.
