I had my daughter May 2nd of this year and had a tubal ligation. I have yet to have a period. I am not breastfeeding. Me and my husband have had intercourse, is there anyway that I may be pregnant?

Doubt it. It is 99.7% effective. And effective immediately. If you are worried, take a test.

It is possiable so you should see your doctor. I had my tubes tied after my 8th pregnancy and it screwed me all up for a while. I thought I was having a tubal preganacy but once I went to the ER I found out it was a cist causeing the problem. 14yrs later I am more regular but the pain is more intense with my menstral cycle. I would see my doctor just to make sure their isn't something else causeing it.







ETA I know a woman who had two children after her tubes were tied.

Well, it's actually a 1 in 300 chance, but I agree with Kelina that it has barely been 6 weeks, so probably not really cause for concern. By all means, pee on a stick if you are concerned, but otherwise, I'd wait until your 6 week check up (I am assuming you are going to have one) with your doctor and talk to him/her.

I doubt it, but there's probably a 1 in 10 000 chance that you are. However, you've barely passed the 6 week mark when women usually stop bleeding, so maybe give it a month or two before you start to worry
