Question: Dear Luise: My question is a common one, but one that no one can really fully answer. I had my tubes tied in 1993 immediately following the birth of my son. This month my cycle only spotted a little. I have been feeling like I am pregnant but don’t want to get my hopes up because a lot of doctors have stated that you cannot get pregnant after a tublal sterilization.I have found that that answer is simply not true. I know several people who have gotten pregnant after having tubes tied years on down the line. Why can’t someone just be honest about the whole topic. Please help me out with this. Deitra
Answer: Dear Deitra: There is a lot of information on the web on Tubal Ligation if you do a Google Search.
I honestly think you know more about the subject than I do.
If you feel like your sterilization may have failed and you might be pregnant, why not take a pregnancy test?
It sounds like you have gotten conflicting information and unfortunately that is often true when you do medical research. Some doctors don’t want to admit that a procedure failed. Trust your own instincts.
Blessings, Luise
So are you pregnant? I had mine done only about 8 months ago (tubes tied) and I feel like I may be preggo as well? I am so curious to find out what happened with you!
Thanks! Traci
I had my tubes tied in 05 after the birth of my 3rd child. 6mths later I could have sworn I was prego. So I called my obgyn in hopes they would put my mind at ease; was told exact opposite. It happens quite often and I am now “late” by a week;1/2 but have no symptoms. My husband & I have discussed it in depth; if God chooses to bless us with a 4th so be it. Best wishes and prayers

Take your question to your doctor, please. Don’t trust anyone else with it. Blessings, Luise
