(2) Sequential Preparation:
It was inroduced to duplicate the menstrual cycle more faithfully.The first 15 Tab contained only estrogen and the next 6 had progestin added.The dose of estrogen in this regimen had to be relatively larger and failure rates are slightly higher.Furthe,estrogen alone could increase the incidence of endometrial carcinoma,These have ,thereof,been withdrawn.
(3) Phased Regimen:
These have been intoduced to permit reduction in total steroid dose without compromising efficacy.These are biphasic or triphasic.The estrogen dose is kept constant while the amount of progestin is low in the first phase and progressively higher in the second and third phases.
(4)Minipill:
It has been devised to eliminate the estrogen,because many f the long term risks have been ascribed to this component.A low dose progestin only pill is taken daily continuously without any gap.
(5) Postcoital Contraception:
