From wiki:


Centchroman is non-steroidal form of birth control that is marketed in India, under the trade name Saheli®. Centchroman is a pill which is taken once per week. Centchroman has been available in India since the early 90s, but is not available or in the process of becoming available elsewhere.

Method of action

Centchroman (ormeloxifene) is a SERM, or Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator. It causes ovulation to occur asynchronously with the development of the uterine lining. More specifically, it causes ovulation to occur sooner than it normally would in a woman’s cycle, while causing the lining of the uterus to build more slowly. If fertilization occurs, implantation will not be possible.


Usage

Centchroman is used as a weekly oral contraceptive. This is touted as a major advantage by manufacturers and users alike. Hormonal birth control pills must be taken at the exact same time each day. In the case of the progesterone only pill, a delay of as little as one hour can trigger ovulation (and the risk of pregnancy). Centchroman’s weekly schedule is an advantage for women who prefer an oral contraceptive, but find it difficult or impractical to adhere perfectly to a timed, daily schedule.

For the first twelve weeks of use, it is advised to take the Centchroman pill twice per week. From the thirteenth week on, it is taken once per week. The consensus is that backup protection in the first month is a cautious but sensible choice.


Effectiveness

Clinical trial users experienced a failure rate of less than 2%, a rate which is comparable to hormonal birth control pills.


Manufacture and marketing


Centchroman was first manufactured by Torrent Pharmaceuticals, and marketed under the trade name Centron®. Centron was discontinued. A new license for Centchroman was given to Hindustan Latex Ltd., which now manufactures Centchroman under the trade name Saheli®.
