"aviane is the second birth control i have taken, but the first that i have actually stuck to for a somewhat long period of time. i first started out with progestin-only nora-be and i did not like it at all. upon receiving aviane, i was fairly excited to start. i heard mixed reviews but decided to start it anyway and let me tell you, i&#039;m glad i did. aviane has cleared up my acne almost completely. i used to suffer from mild acne and my skin is almost flawless. also, my breasts seem to have enlarged. i feel like i may have gained weight due to an increased appetite but probably no more than 4-5 pounds which is worth not getting pregnant and having clear skin plus i&#039;m fairly petite. i definitely plan to stay on aviane for a long time! love it!"
