Bash getopts option

[Shanks]

I am trying to parse command line options using getopts. 
for parsing options that are words , for e.g -help, Bash is not allowing me
to do that.
while getopts c:d:fh:help options
do
    case $options in 
      help) echo" Help"
                ;;
done
The above code does not parse -help option. Any suggestions
