Brief Answer:
Misoprostal will not help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
There is no short cut to get periods immediately. Misoprostal is used to induce abortion and not to induce periods. Since you are not pregnant, it will not cause a bleeding or correct the hormonal imbalance and bloating that you are having. The hormonal tablets like Meprate need to be taken for at least 5 days and after stopping the medicine it takes at least 72 hours for the bleeding to start.
You please provide me with the detailed history with dates of the medicines that you have taken in last 2 months to get the periods. Taking papaya and other herbal remedies will also not help you much.
It is best to follow your gynecologist's advise and start taking meprate or take oral contraceptive pills for a month and then have a proper period.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Brief Answer:
Take Meprate for 5 days.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Take at least 5 mg of Meprate thrice a day for 5 days and then stop it. You will get your periods in next few days. The bloating and other symptoms will also reduce once your periods start.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
