I was never overtaken by PMS, but the cramps were more than enough.

[color=navy blue] I am taking Alesse too and I absolutely love it. I know a lot of women take Ortho b/c of those trendy commercials, but Alesse is a winner as far as I'm concerned. I have never had ANY cramps, PMS, or any other period drama. On the other hand I never had any of those problems before BC. The other great plus is a really light period of 3 days or less. [/color]
