Yes. I had very heavy periods before I went on a Birth Control pill. I noticed quite the difference within 3 months of being on the pill, since it takes about this long to get to its full potential. I no longer have to go to the bathroom all the time to check for leaks and do not have the heavy bleeding, sore breasts, or cramps I used to have.
