"i&#039;ve been on generess fe for 5 weeks now. i started the first day of my period and practiced safe sex the first month.  i was on loestrin before which made me feel crazy. and nuvaring, which made sex uncomfortable. generess is not so bad, i did get nauseous in the beginning, and when i had to double up when i missed a pill. i do feel anxious but i also have been recovering from generalized anxiety disorder, so it&#039;s a normal feeling for me. i did however have a strong depressed feelings for a few hours but again i thought it was my period. i feel my moods go up and down faster but they aren&#039;t as bad as the other pills i was on. i do feel more calm on this pill. i do feel breast tenderness but that&#039;s it."
