Hello dear
I understand your concern
Postinor 2 contain high progesterone and it is same hormone that produce in body.
Adverse effect of postinor 2 on fetus has not been reported.
So it will not affect baby. But for safer side pregnancy should be detected and completely analysed by USG scan.
I would suggest to consult fetal medicine specialist and undergo USG scan to confirm normal pregnancy.
You can start folic acid tablet to support and effective growth of fetus
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and maintain proper pelvic hygiene
Hope this may help you

Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
