Hello, I have been using Microgynon for several years.... I got pregnant but for the first 4 weeks I didn't know about it and I was still taking Microgynon, is it safe for the fetus?

If you stopped taking the pills immediately when the pregnancy was diagnosed - do not worry. According to the manufacturer: "The use of Microgynon 21 in pregnant women is not recommended. If a woman becomes pregnant while taking Microgynon 21, its use should be discontinued. It should be noted, however, that extensive epidemiological studies have not shown an increase in the risk of birth defects in children of mothers who used combined oral contraceptives prior to pregnancy, nor in teratogenic effects if the combined oral contraceptives were inadvertently taken in early pregnancy.
