Herbal Suggestions for Completing Miscarriage

Here's a good source to have on your shelves. It's called "Herbal Abortion - The Fruit of the Tree of Knowledge." with an alternate title, "Herbal Abortion Handbook". The author is Uni M. Tiamat.

Published in 1994, it contains complete instructions for assessing the gestational age of a pregnancy and determining the most suitable abortifacient for each stage. It also has a very useful list of herbs and their various uses in women's reproductive health care. There's also a section on sources for obtaining herbs and how to grow your own.
