The saheli need to be taken Twice a week for the first three months subsequently only once a week. It does not have the side effects normally associated with traditional steroid based pills. Note: It is recommended to use Condoms along with Saheli Pill in the first three months to get the maximum benefits. It takes three months for Saheli pill to extend it's full contraceptive benefits
