Methergine is not a contraceptive or abortion pill and if you are pregnant now after taking it a month ago, you might not even have been pregnant then so no harm to the fetus. Or you were pregnant but no harm has been done.I also hope you were given the meds by a doctor since Methergine should not be taken without supervision. See links below.
