Birth Control
"I&#039;ve read all these reviews and I completely disagree with them. My experience with Aviane has been nothing but negative.  I was on it for 2 months, I gained about 8lbs (and I&#039;m short, so that&#039;s a ton of weight and a whole pant size), my mood swings were out of control, and my first period on it lasted for 8 days and my second is on day 6 right now.  If I wanted to have a period that lasted that long, I wouldn&#039;t have started the pill to begin with. I&#039;m going back to Ortho Tri-Cyclen because I absolutely refuse to deal with the side effects.  I mean, granted, I haven&#039;t had any cramps, but this weight gain and mood swings at the beginning of summer is a no go for me."
