The correct option is C
Saheli
Centchroman is a potent non-steroidal non-hormonal birth control pill. As it is non-steroidal, much of the unsavory side effects of the other pills are avoided. The dosage for the first three months is twice a week after which the pill must be taken only once a week. It is now widely distributed in India under the name Saheli.
