went to a residental treatment center to get treatment for my binge eating disorder and was tooken off birthcontrol which helped me with my cramps we had a naturapathic doctor there.My periods are awful and very painful I havent tooken birthcontrol pills since january i am 17 years old . I take pain relivers but it really doesnt help plus my periods are extremely heavy and when Its towards the time I ovulate I get in all these werid moods even when i am on my period. They think it may be PMMD. I have a pack of yasmin that used to work really well for me I am on day two do you think i should take them and then countie to take birth control but then I have to go to my ob/gyn and that makes me nervous evem though she is a lady . But what can I do in the meantime to get rid of these horrible cramps.
