Can you get pregnant if your tubes have been tied and cut?

In 2005 I got my tubes tied and cut. For the first time I have not had a period. I have all the symptons of pregnancy like I did with my second child. Although I heard the possiblity is very very slim. Could I be pregnant. Should I take a test and if so how soon?

Take a test. I know someone who's tubes grew back together. The chance is small, but it is still there. With having your tubes tied you have a higher risk of a tubal pregnancy which can be very serious. Also, if it comes up negative (which could be wrong) depending on your age/if in a serious relationship, etc I would suggest rulling out menopause, ovarian/cervical cancer or STD's and stress (which can cause all sorts of crazy stuff w/ your body). All can cause pregnancy symptoms.

There is a small chance, But it could be a proble with your hormons. I have had missed periods and pregnacy scars and it was just hormons. I had mine cut, tided, and burned.

A recent study showed that an alarming percentage of women who had had the procedure conceived accidentally. This problem has been remedied by cutting, tying and burning the ends of the fallopian tubes.

The U.S. Collaborative Review of Sterilization (CREST) found the failure rate for tubal ligation (all occlusion methods) to be 1.85% after 10 years. Of the sterilization failures in CREST, one third were ectopic pregnancies (not within the uterus).

Because of the high rate of ectopic pregnancy, women of child bearing age who have had tubal sterilization should have a pregnancy test performed if they have not had a menstrual period. If the woman is pregnant, then she should be evaluated further for the presence of an ectopic pregnancy.

Symptoms and Signs of Possible Ectopic Pregnancy

Abdominal pain

Missed menstrual period

Vaginal bleeding

Dizziness or fainting

Shoulder pain

Urge to defecate

Pregnancy symptoms

Passage of tissue

In the absence of complicating maternal conditions a pregnancy found to be within the uterus after tubal ligation (without a coexisting tubal pregnancy) would not be expected to be at increased risk for miscarriage or fetal abnormality.

I have heard of many cases like yours. my best friends mother had 2 more children after this and my mother in law had one more child after her procedure. you need to go to your gyno as soon as you can and voice you concerns....just like other ppl have said it could be an ectopic pregnancy...those are dangerous

I am a mother of five and also a grandmother. I had my tubal done in 2001 the same day my son was born. Now that he is 8 years old, I am experiencing pregnancy symptoms. My menstrual went from being normal to abnormal, my breast getting the "growing itch", my nose spreading across my face, and my stomach looks like it's getting bigger. What is going on? I spoke to my husband and he is all for it again. I am too but to a certain extent.
