Tilted Uterus and severe cramps?

Question

I've been going to the doctors alot lately to try and figure out why i get such bad menstrual cramps and very heavy bleeding. I went in for a pelvic ultrasound to see if there were any cysts or anything like that. I checked out fine so those have been ruled out but the technician said i have a slightly tilted uterus. I have another doctor's visit this week for more tests (I'll probably end up on the pill) but could my tilted uterus have anything to do with the severity of my period? (which I have been getting every month for almost 7 years now) Also will having a tilted uterus have any effects on anything else? Sexual intercourse, pregnancy, etc...

Thanks =)

Yes depending on degree of tilt either backward or forward can have an impact on the intensity of the cramping and the amount of flow from the period.
