I have been taking Aviane for almost two years now and I have been doing alright. I am now taking it in a constant regiment so I don't have a period. It hasn't changed much about me besides I have mood swings every now and then. I feel depressed or not ambitious at times. I am not sure if it's from the pill or just me being lazy. My acne that I had before taking Aviane has gone away besides a pimple here and there. Other than the mood swings this pill hasn't had much of an effect on me personally.
