Overview
Cyclofenil (INN, trade names Ondogyne, Sexovid, and others) is a selective estrogen receptor modulator.
It was investigated as a possible treatment for scleroderma in the 1980s, but was found to be ineffective.[1] Later study of its efficacy in treating Raynaud's phenomenon in people with scleroderma also found no statistically significant benefit.[2]
