What Causes Delay In Periods With History Of Tubal Ligation?
Question: Hi, I had my tube tied, not burnt 9 years ago after c-section. Have no period for 2 months, and the common pregnancy symptoms. Is there a chance, or is it something else?
Brief Answer:
less chance of pregnancy
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, it is not very common to have spontaneous recanalization of tied tubes (seen in less than 0.7%) so chances are very less.
But still do a urine pregnancy test which if negative then just wait for period to cone and this delay is just due to perimenopausal transition.
Nothing to worry most probably.
Take care.
