Ok, when I get my period, it is an absolute bitch. I get really horrible cramps that make it impossible to function for the first two days of my period. I also have a very heavy period, which makes it a total pain in the rear to do much of anything until the last few days of my period, where it lightens up considerably.

[itcalic|However], I have noticed, that when I am on my period, if I have sex or get off, not only do my cramps go away, but my flow becomes considerably lighter. I recall a friend of mine telling me that when he banged his girl, (<.< Derogatory much?), she had this reaction.

I was on birth control at the time, and so never noticed a difference. However, now that I'm not on the birth control anymore, I can see a major difference. I wondered, am I just insanely lucky, or is this more common then I thought? less
