Now that I'm no longer on birth control pills, I have really terrible cramps again. I don't want to go back to the same pills I had before, because starting in my late 20s, they totally nerfed my sex drive. So I have a couple questions:

1) Does anyone know if there are very low dose birth control pills that will control out-of-control periods? 
2) Does anyone have other remedies for ridiculous cramps and incredibly heavy periods? (I have some weird allergies, like to aloe and echinacea, so I'm wary of most "all-natural herbal" stuff.)

I don't have health insurance. I can afford Planned Parenthood-level fees though.
