Is It Possible To Get Pregnant Even After Having A Tubal Ligation Surgery?

I had a tubal ligation in 2010 but am now 4 months late with my period. I really haven't been concerned but am now starting to notice I'm gaining weight and tonight I can feel my uterus contracting? Is it possible to become pregnant after a tubal?

hi, i can understand your concern.
although a rare possibility bt failure of tubal ligation is a possibility which can lead to pregnancy.
i would suggest you to do your pregnancy strip test, if positive get a sonography done, if negative consult your doctor to rule out other causes.
