"after being on four different types of birth control pills in 3 1/2 yrs and having horrible side effects ranging from acne, hair falling out, spotting for months, to anxiety, to stroke-like sypmtoms and going to the er, my obgyn suggested generess fe. i love this pill! no side effects at all, other than my breasts have gone from a 34c to a very full 34d! no weight gain (other than in my chest), nausea, headaches, no &quot;foggy&quot; feeling at all. these pills are easy to take, pleasant tasting, and the light, 2-3 day periods are an awesome bonus! i am so happy to have found a birth control pill that works for me and doesn&#039;t have nasty side effects. i highly recommend this form of birth control!"
