ResumoA review is presented of the existing literature on the progestogen-only "mini-pill", a greatly under-used method of contraception. The under-use appears to stem from a lack of awareness on the part of medical advisers of the reasonable efficacy and minor side effects of the method. The benefits and disadvantages have been carefully evaluated and recommendations made for the more wide-spread use of progestogen-only mini-pills.
