Aviane
birth control
"Now on Aviane for almost 2 months, I'm somewhat happy... My periods once again follow a schedule and have become lighter. I don't notice any difference in cramping or bloating from before (I usually experience those on the first day and still do). I'm occasionally nauseous in the mornings. The worst side-effect for me is acne. I had pretty normal skin before- dry with one or two breakouts a month- now I'm oily. And no matter how diligent I am about skincare, I wake up every morning with at least 3 or 4 (& often more) new whiteheads. I'm getting frustrated, but trying to give my body another month to regulate. I'd hate to chance switching to something else that's worse, but if this acne doesn't subside, I'm going back to my doctor."
