**Desorgestrel-containing oral contraceptive pills are associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (WHO press release 15 December 1995). Prior to issuing orders for this OC, UNFPA requires full justification in writing from the MOH certifying that it is aware of this risk and that appropriate counseling will be available to women so that they can make informed choices.
