Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for reaching out to us with your concern. I can appreciate your feelings regarding another pregnancy. That is why you had the tubal ligation, right:)

Start by taking a home pregnancy test before calling your gynecologist.

There is slight chance that you may get pregnant after this procedure. This has been found to happen to five in every 1000 women who undergo the procedure and this happens within the first year. At least 13 in 10000 women experience pregnancy after tubal ligation five years later.
Pregnancy can occur if the tubes grow back and reattach or a new passage forms which makes it possible for eggs to be fertilized by a sperm.

Please keep us updated.
