Dear Anon,

Thanks for your question.

A late or missed period can happen occasionally. The chance of pregnancy is very low after a tubal ligation. Here is what the American Pregnancy Association says:

*If you have had tubal ligation surgery in the past and believe that you are currently experiencing pregnancy symptoms talk to your health care provider. Although the probability of getting pregnant is very low, it is still possible.*

Best,
Helena
