Umm...my periods were waaaay worse before I went on the drugs. I don't EVER EVER EVER want to go back there. I've found a combination of natural remedies (vitamin B complex, chamomile tea, and this nifty herbal supplement) plus naproxen and a regimen of birth control keep my cramps far more manageable than they were when I was younger/before I went on bc.
If I stopped taking birth control/naproxen, I would spend four days of every month curled up in a little ball, puking my guts out. No thank you. I'll take the chemicals and the consequences.
