Cramping from switching from junel birth control pills to apri?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be normal: When changing birth control pills the difference in the amount or type of hormones can cause a change in the periods. Bleeding heavier or lighter, cramping better or worse. Make sure you're taking pills on time. If this doesn't improve you could switch back.
