I'm not sure if that was what my gyn put me on a few years back, cuz I had been bleeding for 4 wks heavy, however it made me worse as well... And I never had cramps either (rarely had cramps until this hormone pill), then after taking that it felt like something was trying to rip my right ovary out... HURT LIKE HELL... Anyway it might be doing the same thing making it worse...

Then I switched gyn's, and she put me on Loestrine bcp... it worked with in 4 days i had quit bleeding / spotted for about 2 days then back to being normal...

Progesterone Brand name Prometrium here's the info on webmd...

Best of Luck!!! Jess
