Thank you for the suggestion. I am on thyroid meds and maybe the Yasmin
may require a change in the dosage. I never thought of that since I've
never been hyperthyroid. Always very hypothyroid. Yes, anxiety may be
an issue for some but it doesn't seem so for me. I mainly feel like
I've had too much caffeine. Thanks!
