Further experience with quingestanol acetate as a postcoital oral contraceptive

T W Mischler et al. Contraception. 1974 Mar.

Abstract

PIP: The experiences of 4 clinical research groups, 1 each in Mexico, Peru, Chile, and Argentina, using quingestanol acetate as a postcoital oral contraceptive is described. 2702 patients accumulated 18,531 cycles of postcoital therapy. In Mexico with a 800 mcg dose, the pregnancy rate was .6. In Chile and Peru at a dose of 750 mcg, pregnancy rates were over 20. Differences in selection of patients may account for part of the difference.
