Question
My doctor is getting ready to put me on a new birth control pill called, I think the name was, Impress? I can't seem to find any information about it & was wondering if you could help me out?

Answer
The way I find out about new things is the same as you. I look on the web. I coulden't find anything. I suggest you call your doctor and get the correct name of the pill. Usually a new product has lots of play on the web so I suspect that "Impress" isn't the name. Please let me know what it is.
