How To Deal With Serious Carbohydrate Cravings?

I have been taking cerazette for a while but having bad pmt each month with no periods and really struggle to diet for one week of each month with serious carbohydrate cravings. I have just been given Yasmin but with very little advice. Do you think this will help with the moods and attempt at weight loss? Age 26, 12stone, 5foot6
