Birth Control
"My doctor switched me to this after having depression, anxiety and terrible cramps while taking Kariva. I&#039;ve been taking birth control for about 7 years now due to PCOS and I&#039;ve tried pretty much everything, nothing seems to be the right fit as of yet. I&#039;ve been on Altavera for 2 months and I&#039;ve gained  12 lbs already.  Aside from increased hunger, I&#039;ve noticed I&#039;ve had less cramping and my periods were lighter and for less days. I&#039;ve also had less mood swings. Aside from gaining weight, overall not bad."
