Researchers have developed a once-a-month oral contraceptive pill that they say would offer women more choice and control over their fertility.
Axar.az reports citing BBC.
Once swallowed, the pill remains in the stomach for weeks, slowly releasing hormones to prevent a pregnancy.
It is specially designed to resist immediate attack by stomach acid.
A US team, funded by The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, has tested it in pigs and hopes human trials can start within a few years.
The researchers say it would be a good option for women who want to take a tablet for birth control, but are worried about remembering to take a daily dose.
