Hello!
Thanks for your query.
Ovral l and Ovral g have quite different formulations .
Ovral L has .02mg of ethinyl estradiol and .1mg of levonorgestrel .
Ovral G has .05mg of ethinyl estradiol and .5mg of norgestrel.
They do not cause cysts in ovaries.
I'd try the Ovral L, because it has in general the lowest amount of hormones in it.
You'll probably have fewer side effects on Ovral L.
Take care of your self
