Is it normal to miss a period on generess fe? i've been on it for 7 months and last month for the 1st time, had no period.

Yes : As long as your pregnancy test is negative it is certainly acceptable to miss a period while on the pill.

It has 24 active pills followed by 4 pills that contain iron(not active). It is effective to prevent pregnancy ; leads to lighter/ short periods. In some cases periods can be missed.
