Is It Normal To Miss Periods After Tubal Ligation?

I had my tubes tied on Dec 17th after my son was born. I still haven't had my period though. My husband and I didn't have sex till around new years and that was the first time after having my son in Nov. I'm not having any symptoms of being pregnant and the test was negative. But is it normal to miss periods like this after getting tubes tied. Until this week I was also breastfeeding

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) Yes the periods get delayed in some women after tubal ligation due to medicines involved.
