A member asked:
I stop taking contraceptive pill for 6 months now. been having cramping 1 week before period, which is not usual for me. is it normal?

Native cycle: Being off OCPs for 6 months you have returned to the cycle and symptoms you would have had if you never took them. One of the reasons many people take OCPs is to reduce cramping and pain.
