I have been on birth control since I was 14 years old because my periods were so heavy and irregular... I am now 26 and 4 months ago after getting married I went off of it because my husband and I are trying to conceive. I am all over the place again with my cycle. One month I was a week late and the next I was 2 weeks early and the following I was 4 days late and now this month I was a week and a half early. But aside from the irregularity again, I forgot how awful these cramps get! I remember I used to lay with my legs in the air and a heating pad on my belly but considering I'm not 14 anymore and have a job that would probably frown on that remedy I'm lookin for suggestions on remedys for cramps. Please. Any suggestions are appreciated .
