Hi docs, would birth control help with cramps?

Yes, very likely.: Birth control pills will usually make your period lighter, more predicable and less painful. Most women will have less cramps.

Hard to say: Hormonals were first investigated to provide women relief from irregular periods, cramps or excessive menstrual flow. Birth control was a side effect that became one of their dominant use. A consultation with your doc or an OBGYN can help you decide what to do.
