To the girls that got on birth control for your cramps would you suggest it to someone else. And what were your side effects if any ??

The side effects vary by person obviously but as far as cramping I’d recommend. It’s made it less painful to deal with so I can honestly get through my day productively. They used to be so bad I’d just want to lay in bed the entire day. Also my bleeding is slightly less heavy

It affects everyone differently, but i take it continuously for suspected endometriosis (horrible cramping, nausea, irregular periods, etc.) and its awesome. Stops my period entirely (only have it every few months as a reset), and most of my period-related issues are gone. But there are risks and youd have to see what your doctor recommends

Absolutely! It’s been incredible. I’m in so much less pain now, my periods are less frequent and I don’t get nauseous or anything!

I say suspected only bc to definitively diagnose it they need a biopsy of my ovary and my endo isnt severe enough to warrant that
