Hi, Anon, and thank you for your question.
The answer to your question is yes. It's rare, but it absolutely happens.
The statistics are that 1 in 200 women who have had their tubes tied become pregnant again. Most pregnancies that occur (70%) in women who have had their tubes tied are ectopic, and can be dangerous if not detected early enough and seen by a doctor.
Are you having pregnancy symptoms? And you had a tubal ligation? Or is this question for someone you're close to?
