I have a little trick. I don't take any ibuprophen (which, according to my mom, actually stops cramps). I bleed really heavily for two days and am in quite a lot of discomfort from cramping, but by day three, my period is down to the occasional spotting. Maybe I'm crazy, but it seems to work. If I take ibuprophen, my period is about five days long. So my method shaves two days off. Hope that helps... And happy birthday!
