Hello,
Few studies have shown that emergency contraception may not cause birth defects. But keep an eye of your fetal development and growth and TIFFaA scan etc.
Consult your gynaecologist she will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
