I had not heard that there was a possibility for birth defects. I would not think that would be right. It's really just progesterone, which your body does make if it has a natural cycle. I think you should be fine.
As for the 5 versus 10 days: I have seen a couple of posts from other cysters saying that they only had 5 pills to take as well. Maybe the doc its just trying to jump start your AF.
