"i am 20 years old and i have been taking tri-sprintec for about a year and 2 months now. it was my first time on birth control and it has been pretty good for me. i never really got cramps, but when i started taking the pills i started having light cramping before and after my monthly cycle.. but nothing too serious. overall, i feel like tri-sprintec has been pretty awesome! i keep my alarm on my phone, and i&#039;m fine. i do feel like maybe being on the pill is slowing down my weight loss but it&#039;s okay. i&#039;m not pregnant, so i don&#039;t mind.
