Hello dear
Understand your concern.
Norlut-N contain hormone norethesterone.
Yes it has been reported that it can causes fetal malformation and fetal defects.
But chance is very less.
So if you will be pregnant, it require special care.
Do regular USG follow up for the fetus progress and to find out the defects in first timester only.
Regular ante natal check up and
folic acid can be given.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
