Tubal Ligation Failure QuestionFrom: EMK (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 30 Aug 2000 16:45:21 -0500 (CDT)
I had a tubal ligation performed in 1992, the day after the birth of my second child. I do not know the exact procedure used (clips, etc) but seem to recall cauterization being performed (though not for certain). Within the last few weeks, I've had several pregnancy symptoms occuring, but this is not unusal for me, as I have a prolactinoma and often experience some of these symptoms, such as morning sickness and lactation. However, the symptoms I am currently experiencing are a "evening" sickness, repeated burping, lethargy, and change in appetite. (I had evening sickness and burping in both pregnancies.) My period last month was very short and very light, but again this did not bother me. I often get periods ranging from 2-4 days, usually moderate for the first 1-2 days and light the rest. Also, during both of my pregnancies, I experienced periods during the first trimester. My first pregnancy was discovered at 16 weeks and my second one at 12 weeks! On both occasions, the last period I experienced was very light and short. What is the probability of being pregnant eight years after a tubal ligation has been performed? Thanks, EMK
