A member asked:
My periods have been really irregular lately. i've been on the pill before to help but it worsened my cramps. would a different brand of pills help?

Possibly: There are many different types and brands of BC pills. Different formulations with different strengths of hormones may cause less side effects that you had in the past. Talk to your Dr. and see if a different strength pill will help regulate your periods and cause no ill effects. Good luck.
