Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Cytotec which is misoprostol taken for abortion earlier will not effect the next pregnancy and the fetus. It's effect is limited to that pregnancy only.
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined and treated.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
