YAZ
I get 5 day heavy periods when I'm not on any birth control, w/Yaz it's super super light and not to get real personal but it's so light I can't even use a tampon now otherwise I don't know if I'm still on my period. I don't remember having any cramps except for I always get a slight cramp the moment I start my period and that one never went away. I do warn you though, like with most forms of birth control your body will take an adjusting period and for me the first month or so I'd randomly get spotting but now it's regular. Oh and there's only 4 of the sugar pills instead of 7 like most other pills so it's meant to give you short periods. Hope that helps, everyone's experience is going to be different so that's good you asked the board.
