I took aviane a year or so ago for about 2 months and stopped. I was just recently put back on it due to pain in my lower abdomen ( suspected cyst). Although there were not too many horrible side effects from the last time i took aviane, this time I HATE IT! I eat everything in sight, i want to cry at every given moment, i want to punch everyone in the face, i am mean to my BF and don't want to have sex. I have never experienced such wackiness.
I have gained about 5-10 pounds in the past 3 weeks (im almost to the sugar pills) and i have gotten horribly depressed/mean. I don't like this. Luckily though im not nauseous or have jaundice or pain behind my eyes or anything, but i do sleep like ALL day. I will go to bed around 4 am, wake up at 2pm take a nap around 5pm until about 7 or 8pm and then be up til 4 am... eating...uncontrollably..while yelling at anyone insight. BEWARE OF SYNTHETIC HORMONES!

I have been on Aviane 28 Day BC for a month. I did not notice any changes right away, however, my boyfriend keeps complaining about my attitude and I was beginning to believe that I was turning into a monster.
However, after reading many of your comments, I believe that my mood swings can be correlated to this BC.
Also, I always had UNCONTROLLABLE acne, but now my skin is nearly FLAWLESS so that is GREAT news for me! My breasts have also gotten larger, which is a plus in my case.
Additionally, I'm on Week 4 (the sugar pills) and my period is almost nonexistent even though I know it is here. I'm bleeding very lightly (which means I could use a panty shield). Before I started taking this BC I had TERRIBLE periods and EXCRUTIATING cramps. I used at least 40 pads or more every month! I have 4 packs of pads in anticipation of my period, but it seems like I won't be using them for right now. However, I am a little concern that my period is barely here, but I will be a good patient and continue to use the pill for the next two months as prescribed.
Finally, I have also noticed that I now feel very agitated and extremely anxious which is not a pleasant feeling at all!
Overall, the pill seems to be working for what it was prescribed for (i.e. assist with menstrual cramps and reduce the flow). I wish everyone the best with this medication or in finding one that is efficient for you.

Have been to 4 neurologists and they all confirm that there is nothing seriously wrong with me neurologically and they put it down to stress. I have tried herbal remedies, acupuncture, body stress release, dietician, exercise, pain killers, massage, physio, posture modifying appliance, bean bags and oils, ice pack, pilates, chiropractor, daily meds like inderal and trepiline and still, nothing has been able to give me long te...
by rose81, 2 replies, updated about 2 hours ago.I was given the fantastic news that my body doesn't like itself anymore. I don't know when it had a falling out, but all I can say is the course of action to remedy this disease is CRAZY. Taking meds that have more side effects and the restrictions on my daily life, because of the meds, no driving, no salt, no sugar, and little fat in my diet, very little sun. Bathing in skin moisturizer, moodiness, mental confusion, can't work, but expected to continue cooking for family, and cleaning. Which I guess ...
