Birth Control vs Natural Hormonal Balancing?

Gabrielle
Just last year I was rushed to urgent care, thinking a crippling wave of cramping and severe clotting could have possibly been a miscarriage. Turns out my hormones are severely imbalanced (though I was not given any blood work results) and was recommended  birth control. Lo and behold, almost a year later I have been taking Marlissa - not too bad. But this months period starting 9/29/16 I have noticed a light flow (yay!) but severe abdominal cramping and clotting again. Have any other women experienced this while on the pill? I'm tired of these synthetic hormones and would love to try an alternative and healthy approach to fixing this hormone imbalance and definitely will be speaking with my doctor next week. Any suggestions or advice is greatest appreciated. Thank you in advance!
