Birth control

Randi

I am currently on a 28 day cycle where 21 days are active pills and 7 days are inactive pills. I am really thinking about getting on three month pills that I only have my period once every three months. The older I get the worse the cramps, lower back pain, headaches and nausea are. I was looking on Mayo Clinic and they said it was still safe for when I decide to have children. What my question is, for the people who are currently on this type of birth control do you still get your period symptoms on the months where you don’t have your period without the bleeding?
