Pregnancy after taking emergency contraception for three months, will it affect the fetus?

Patient's question:

I took one post-coital emergency contraceptive pill from Xianju brand on April 15th (only once), and have been using condoms for contraception ever since. Because I really want a child, and I usually urinate a lot, I believe my detoxification function is quite good. Starting from August 3rd, I stopped using any contraception methods, and later found out I was pregnant. Now, there is a strong odor from my lower body, similar to the smell of my lower body when I was taking the emergency contraceptive pills.

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: Hello, from the perspective of eugenics, it is recommended to wait for 3 months after taking emergency contraception before getting pregnant. Your condition may be due to vaginitis, and you can have a leukorrhea test.
Advice: There is no need to worry, as it generally does not lead to fetal malformations. It is recommended to have a Down syndrome screening between weeks 15-20 of pregnancy to assess the baby's intellectual development. Additionally, a 4D ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening should be performed between weeks 22-26 to check for any major physical abnormalities and the development of major organs.
