Hi,
It's ok; what happens in past, it's possible no effects of that but other nutrients or hormones effected or it's due to meth as varies results in individual to individual, don't even try now! Take good follow up from gynecologist, complete schedule of iron, folic, B12 etc., and USG as follows.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
