Welcome to EmpowHER. Tubal ligation is considered a permanent method of birth control. But there is always a slight risk of becoming pregnant after having a tubal ligation 5 out of 1,000 women after 1 year. Women with tubal ligation are at higher risk of having an ectopic pregnancy. You will need to discuss with your doctor the chances of you having another ectopic pregnancy. Hope this was helpful?
