When i first started this birth control, everything was fine. My doctor told me that it should get rid of acne, and, being a person who doesn't normally have acne, i've been getting pimples on my face, chest, and back. In my second pack, i've experienced extreme jealousy, anxiousness, and i cry at EVERYTHING, i cry at Say Yes to the Dress. Started off good but then it got bad.

I took Generes for two months. The first month was great - no issue with the drug itself (more later on the $25 discount card issues). The second month is when I started to have really bad gastro issues. Also, the cramps I got had me literally doubled over...and lasted two days. I bled heavier than I had in years too. I also think my emotional reaction to negative or upsetting things was a bit ... Show Full Comment

The second month is when I started to have really bad gastro issues. Also, the cramps I got had me literally doubled over...and lasted two days. I bled heavier than I had in years too. I also think my emotional reaction to negative or upsetting things was a bit out of control. It was like a switch turned my anger or distress on instantly. I took Ovcon before for over 20 years and never had any of that. I switched to Generes because I was told there was no more Ovcon being made. Just found it is and bought the Ovcon. I will not use Generes again if I need not. As to the $25 Rx card they give you - "pay no more than $25 or less" per prescription. NOT true. I paid more than $25. When I called the company to ask why, they said the card has a $50 per Rx limit. So if your pharmacy charges more than $75 for Generes, it's possible you'll pay more then $25 even with the card. They don't tell you that on the card or anywhere in the materials that come with the card!

I have been taking this for two weeks and i have recently began having really bad arm pains and weakness, along with headaches. It could be related to smoking while im using this BC but i will no longer take it im scared i could have a blood clot.

I've only been taking this for a week. I feel fine, but I really hate the heavy periods even though mines is normally that way. It can kinda be embarrassing.
