Hi Typo,

The pill is pretty good at regulating periods, and making them more light.

You may want to check out the site below for answers. While some people here may have had a tough time on pill A or B, doesn't mean that it isn't the right choice for you. I'd recommend looking at professional resources to make an educated decision, and ask your doctor for the prescription.

Both sites have lots of information ~ pros and cons listed.
Best wishes to you!
