Hello, welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das

Look, i do not understand one thing, do you need a pregnancy or not?

I am asking this because, modus is contraindicated in pregnancy. In early pregnancy, to prevent abortion, you need to take dydrogesterone group of drug.

Now, as you have already taken the medicine, i think there is very high possibility of fetal abnormality.

So, it would be better to go for abortion for this pregnancy.

You should consult with your treating doctor about it.

Regards.
