hi thanks for writing to us
it is a norethisterone hormone which should not be taken in pregnancy
it can affect the fetus though chances are very very small
effects may be dose dependent
needs regular ultrasound evaluation of fetus
every tablet has side effects....
wait and watch is the only thing that can be done
minimal chances are always there for fetal anomalies
hope this information was useful
