Hello,

If Ultrasonography (USG) report is showing that the baby is having all the normal features then you need not worry about it. Usually, baby's organs development starts 24 days after conception. So, your tablets if were taken before that period, it will not have any impact on baby's development.

Norethindrone tablets contain progesterone hormone, and has got very mild androgenic effects, so please do not worry about it. I will suggest you to get the baby examined by your pediatrician by giving him the history of medication.

As on now, I will suggest you the following:
- Please opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen
- Include more portions of fruits and vegetables and salads in daily diet
- Drink plenty of water in the day
- Avoid refined sugars and deep fried foods and bakery products in the diet
- Please take Iron, Calcium, protein and vitamin B12 and Folic acid supplementation on regular basis
- Meditate regularly
- Think positive

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Purushottam Neurgaonkar
