My daughter is 18 and also has PCOS. She was diagnosed last May. She is currently taking Yasmin, but I too have concerns about the Yasmin masking her symptoms and about the hormone issue. However, Yasmin has been a positive experience in respect that she does not have extremely painful cramps anymore and her complexion has improved. We go to a reproductive endocrinologist who is very respected in the medical community. I am hoping his knowledge of what is best for my daughter will work for her. Later this month she will be tested to see what her cortisol level is. I am researching daily for breakthroughs as to how we can learn to deal with PCOS. Good luck. This site has been an excellent support site for me because we have nothing in my community for help.
