Brief Answer:
Delayed periods
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Greetings
Your wife has undergone tubal ligation during cesarean
operation 5 years back and you both never had sex for 5 years.
Is her periods regular.?
Have you tested her urine for pregnancy.?
If not get a urine pregnancy test at the earliest. cards are available in medical shops.
There is very less chance of pregnancy as the failure rate of tubal ligation or partial salpingectomy is very less around 1 to 2.5 %.
Since you both never had sex before, I suggest you to get the urine test.If positive consult a gynaecologist and confirm it as intrauterine pregnancy.
If the test is negative you can wait for one more week for the periods.
Hope you are convinced. Regards
