tigerangel, while it is different for everyone, I recommend trying the pill. I had cramps to the point of puking, along with very heavy bleeding, for years, and when a friend finally convinced me to try the pill I couldn't believe the difference. Very minimal cramps, finally a regular schedule, pretty much down to the hour most of the time, and much lighter bleeding. And now I've been married for 4 years and so far so good on not getting pregnant, although I know some people do get pregnant on the pill.
I've tried taking the pill straight through to skip a period though and it didn't work. It basically delayed it for a week and then I'd spot for 3 weeks straight. Not fun.
