endometriosis
"I only started birth control because my cramps every month were so severe I would vomit and could barely walk. This lessened my cramps only slightly, but added cramping throughout the whole month instead of it just being the first three days of my period. I went to my doctor and switched today because she feels I could do better and reduce my period from 5 days to only 3. I never had any negative side effects that I noticed. I've always had some problems with acne, but Sprintec did not change it either way. I also had no abnormal mood issues from this medication. Since the only reason I'm on it is to stop cramps, and it didn't do that, I have to switch. I hope my new one will be successful and not have any side effects!"
