There is a slight risk of becoming pregnant after tubal ligation. This happens to about 5 out of 1,000 women after 1 year. Pregnancy may occur if the tubes grow back together or a new passage forms that allows an egg to be fertilized by sperm.
Please keep us updated after you hear back from your doctor's office.
