Does Taking Deviry During Pregnancy Harm The Fetus?

Queries in pregnancy after taking Deviry I have quite irregular cycles, since I was planning to get pregnant AFTER AN YEAR, went to the doctor on Feb 15th 2017, to regularize it. My LMP was 16-Dec-2016, the pregnancy test was negative on Feb 14th 2017, went to the doctor on Feb15th and she suggested to take Deviry for 5 days (15 tablets), I took it from Feb 22nd to Feb 27th, but till Mar 7th dint get my periods, so took the pregnancy test and it is positive. I am 4 weeks pregnant and I have taken Deviry on the second week without knowing that I am pregnant. My query is will Deviry cause any issue to my baby, is it ok to continue the pregnancy or is there any risk for the baby (will the baby be affected by any abnormalities.both physically and mentally because of Deviry)

Hello,

In general, there is not an increased risk of birth defects with the use of Deviry early in pregnancy.

There have been some reports of genital abnormalities, like the urethra of males being in an abnormal place, but these are minor and rare, and able to be corrected without much difficulty.

So I hope this reassures you that this can be expected to be a healthy pregnancy and baby.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Aaron Branch, General & Family Physician
