yasmin and masturbation

i just started on yasmin and was wondering if it really is just like yaz. my doctor said it was. what are your experiences with it? im getting on it to help with my acne and PMS.

and second i cannot masturbate. i mean i try and i just cant orgasm from it. i was raised catholic and went to catholic school so i was kinda always taught that stuff was wrong would be a mental thing from my religious up brings? i can orgasm just fine when my boyfriend does it too me but i cant do it myself. ive tried touching myself in different way, thinking about things that turn me on, using lubricant i just cant seem to enjoy it at all i dont know what to do.... is this normal?

i was raised catholic, too. that could have something to do with it. are you just using your hands? i can't give off from my hands alone (but i can from my boyfriend's) -- i have to use the shower head to orgasm. for me, i don't much like the feeling of touching myself, and it's hard to get turned-on alone, whereas i'm super turned on when i'm with my boyfriend.

I didn't notice much different when I switched from Yasmin to Yaz. *shrugs* Neither helped my acne, but both helped my PMDD.

Masturbation: is there any way you can get a vibrator? I'd suggest a no frills type that runs on 2 C-battery made of hard plastic.

Specifically, I like this one: http://shop.libida.com/classic_vibe.asp

Plus, it's on sale for like 5-something. And they are good with discreet billing and shipping. If you're still living at home, you could ask a close friend or your boyfriend or just even someone who doesn't live at home that you trust.

I have managed with my hands alone (or in conjunction with a small, makeshift "toy"; I forget), but it's like trying to tickle oneself. Very difficult. I prefer to use toys of some sort.

It's definitely normal. I used to masturbate with my hands and then it just got kind of boring. I found myself not being able to orgasm after long long periods of playing with myself and got really tired of trying. It definitely diminished my sex drive. Once everything got back into its own normal swing I found other ways to masturbate, like with the showerhead or other toys. It's just learning what works for you, and sometimes it isn't necessarily your hands.

Do you happen to know what the package reads when they ship it out?

Never mind, I just found it on the site. To all others interested this is the name they use:
All orders and billing use our business name, Bedrock, Inc., as the return address. Our packaging does not give any indication of contents except when international customs forms are required. The description(s) are discreet such as toys, books, DVD.

I used to find it almost impossible to orgasm with just my hands. I either needed the bathtap or a bullet vibrator. It just too me a lot of practice, although I'll admit that I still prefer to use a vibrator because it's faster and I'm a bit lazy, and doubly so when I'm on any kind of HBC.

I switched from Yasmin to Yaz for a few months and found that I experienced more morning nausea symptoms during the first few days of a new pack than on Yasmin.

I was never on yaz, but yasmin made my skin FLAWLESS. I glowed like a pregnant woman, lol
