Cramps vs Heavy

Hi everyone!
OK so I used to get these agonising cramps before my period, but the upside was that my actual period would be so light and short.
Since I went off the pill, I am having the opposite. I don't get any kind of cramps anymore, but my flow is out of control, like dont-even-want-to-leave-the-house kind of heavy.
I don't know why this change has happened but I would happily trade back and have the excruciating cramps that I can at least take pain-killers for, than this horrible heavy period that stops being doing everything I usually enjoy!
Has anyone else had anything like this? Am I the only one out there?
