Soooo...when I was on Ortho-tricyclen, I had hell-ass bad cramps. The debilitating kind. Now, I've always read that being on the pill is supposed to make your periods *less* painful, not more...I'm not on it anymore, but I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience.

Who else keeps a period diary? I just started doing it seriously, and am trying to keep track of my entire cycle, not just my hut days. How do you like to keep yours?

the nurse said most people don't have problems, but i wonder since a lot of people like yourself do get some bad cramping.

I keep track of my hut days at http://www.cyclespage.com So far I've learned that my cycle is 30-35 days long.
