I have been on Aviane for 2 months. I have been having extreme feelings of anger and irritability. It wasn't until I started bleeding for 2.5 weeks straight that I started to wonder if my new heightened impatience was related to this medication. I'm going to stop taking this immediately - it is absolutely ruining my life. I had no such problems with Alesse (was on Alesse for roughly 5-7 years with a 2 year break in the middle for pregnancy.)

I have been on Aviane for about six months and I too have experienced weight gain (after working very hard to get rid of it prior to going on Aviane...), mood swings, which are horrible just before and continue the first few days of my period, mild depression (probably a result of the weight gain), and similar pregnancy-type symptoms (swollen breasts, going to the bathroom more often, and cravings). This is the first month that I've put two and two together to recognize that the symptoms/side effects are probaby related to the birth control. I've been on so many different types of birth control, I really don't know what to switch to next. I know that I need a lo-dose of estrogen, because I frequently experience a lessened sex-drive on BC pills.

I am a 21/f. I have been taking Aviane since June 05' with a short break. The pill seems usefull (by that I mean no pregnancy), but I tend to be 5-7lbs heavier on the pill, along with being very moody, and bloated 10-7days before my period. One thing I hate about this drug is that I get overly stressed, and I get my period....up to 2 weeks early....has anyone else experianced this?
