I went on the pill for cramps/flow Sophomore year of college. I used to have debilitating cramps. The kind where all planned activities were cancelled for me when I got my period, unable to get out of bed...my mom actually said that having 3 kids with no painkillers was less painful than her cramps!
Also, the flow was incredible (sorry for those faint of heart!). I could fill a pad in 30 minutes...
After 3 months on the pill, it was heaven. I only cramp the first day now, and only mildly, not bad at all. And the flow is so so little, it's a miracle. However, since I just got married, there is no way I can go off of it to see what it is like to not be taking it! That will not happen until we decide to have children.
Supposedly childbearing is supposed to curb the cramps, so maybe after having kids, they will go away. I don't know what to tell you though. Is losing a little weight worth the cramps? I just don't know if I could live with cramps like that again, especially since I now have to be a working grown up and can't "skip school"!
