Mircette, (no) cramps, and tardy pills

[kuroikirin.livejournal.com]

Somebody asked me to report back about my adventures adjusting to Mircette: last month I was plagued with cramps for the first time since I started taking BC pills. It was my second month on Mircette, and I was angry, terrified, and consuming a whole lot of chocolate.

This time around I'm happy to report that my period is back to being pain free, although I'm still consuming a lot of chocolate. I think I'll live. I was a little worried because somebody had said that if they mess up the pill taking they get unbearable cramps, and I missed a pill by a whole 24 hours (I have never, ever done that before. this is what I get for relying on the alarm watch and not my own memory), but I had no problems at all.

So, um, yay!
