Aviane birth control pill vs Hailey Fe 1/20 birth control pill

Terrible, severe depression within a few days of use. Have not experienced mood swings that bad before or since. At least the packaging is cute?

I use BC to control my heavy 3 week long bleeds. I'm 43, and went from PCOS bleeds to perimenopause bleeds. This one worked well, but did cause breakthrough bleeding a little in the first few packs. By breakthrough I mean an actual period gush, not spotting, I also had spotting off and on. It did shorten my periods to about 7 days. My mood seemed down a bit more, and my libido did decrease a little. However, I had the big O just fine, with my previous one(elinest) I couldnt. I'm starting Amethyst which is a slightly lower dose of the same hormones, hopefully that helps even me more. Overall, I would take Aviane again if I had to.

I've heard it works for some people but not for me. It made me so moody where I could tell there was a major difference than the other brand I was using. I got bad acne every week before my period (did not happen before this pill). The only positive was that I had no cramps and my period was lighter.
