I took a misoprostol kit for abortion on June 3rd but my ultrasound on July 1st showed an 11x7 mm retained product of conception in the fundal region. Is it possible for this to pass naturally in my next period or are there any medications that can help besides surgery? Are there alternative treatments in Ayurveda or Homeopathy?

Small retained products of conception may pass naturally or with medicines. If unresolved, minor surgical evacuation may be needed.

I got my period on May 30th and was told to take Ovral L. When exactly should I start taking it, and is it okay to use if I'm thinking about getting pregnant in the future?

If you want to take Ovral L for contraception, start it on the first day of your period (May 30th), or as advised by your doctor. If you are planning for conception, you should stop taking Ovral L and give your body some time to adjust. Consult with your doctor about the best time to start trying to conceive after stopping birth control.
