Sorry to keep bugging y'all with my petty questions, but since Jill is the only one who answers me ill just direct this question to her lol...ok to refresh, its my firt time taking bcp, im on cyclen, and im on day 14 of my first pack...no real side effects yet, however, for about the last 4 days or so ive been getting these sort of menstrual cramps. usually i get this within a few hours before and after i take my pill for the day. it isnt nausea, and i havent had breakthrough bleeding (yet?)...although im sure the cramps are nothing out of the ordinary i just wanted to know what causes them and how come im experiencing them now and hadn't earlier in my pack...thanks a bunch

Hi Kelli,


It's not just you - I've had that mild crampy feeling off and on whenever I've started a new pill.
