Birth Control
"I started taking Aviane when I was 16 1/2 and I&#039;ve been on it ever since. I&#039;m now 21 and about to discontinue my use of Aviane. It caused me to be emotional almost all the time, I have very little patience, moods swings, I gained weight, it&#039;s tough to lose weight, I have constant headaches and my acne is horrible to the point of scarring. Since I was taking this birth control through the toughest of teenage years, I just thought this was who I became. But after doing research and finding this website, I now know I&#039;m not the only one who has suffered through taking Aviane. It did its job with preventing pregnancy, but didn&#039;t help with my heavy period and painful cramps. I&#039;m finishing my current pack and it&#039;ll be my last."
