Birth Control
"I took Alesse for a couple of years and liked it so well that I stopped taking oral contraceptives entirely when it went off the market. But for the sake of convenience I wanted to start again, and I assumed that inexpensive Aviane, the generic for Alesse, would be the same. Either it isn&#039;t or my body chemistry has changed. I&#039;ve felt some occasional mood swings, but worse, my periods last for at least a week, and mid-cycle, my breasts are so tender and sore that I can&#039;t stand to go running. I think it&#039;s time to switch."
