Hello, I have gone through your query and understood the concern. Studies have shown that use of hormones during early stages of pregnancy can harm the fetus if it happens during the stage of organ differentiation, which happens at about 45 days of gestation, or 6 weeks gestation. Any hormone intake prior to this stage, as most often happens unknowingly, has not shown to be harmful. Thus, you are mostly safe since you took the medication very early in your pregnancy and that too, for a smaller period only. Yet, you should test for any possible fetal anomalies and the earliest way available is fetal DNA sampling. Hope this helps.
