I just started my 3rd pack of Aviane. One of the reasons I started taking birth control was to lighten up my period due to anemia. Well, so far its only made my periods worse. The first pack i had breakthrough bleeding for almost 2 weeks. It was heavy, the cramps were worse, felt sick, and worse depression/anxiety. I went to the doctor and he said this was "normal" and that I should continue the pill. During the second pack I bled for over a week and it was heavier, bad cramps and a headache for a week. Not to mention my "period" never came during the placebo pills but I know it can take time to regulate. I just started my 3rd pack of pill and I'm not feeling well. Just nauseous, sick and depressed again. Just last week when I was on the placebo pill I felt just fine and now i've started Aviane again and i feel horrible. All I know is that if bleed irregular/heavy this month again, i'm either going to go off this horrible stuff or go to the doctor to find a new birth control that doesn't make me feel sick and depressed all the time!

ive been taking aviane for about 4 months or so. and ive finally realized these things are evil. I have bloating, cramping, which ive NEVER had, feeling heavy, weird periods sometimes twice a month. depression, anxiety, backaches, headaches, difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep, im very irritable, and emotional, i feel nauseous and tired, ive got pain behind my eyes. its horrible, im going to my doctor, a different one, Monday to see what they can do for me. they should take this off the market, it might be serving its purpose but at what cost? the multi-side effects just aren't worth it to me. and if you found this website the way i did, then you know where im coming from. it sucks
