A member asked:
Can a contraceptive pill reduce cramps and flow of your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oral contraceptives contain low amounts of hormones, and stop ovarian hormone production, with consequent diminished symptoms of pain and bleeding during the "placebo week". Your menstrual periods will be eliminated and ovulation will cease if taken punctually as directed.
