Hello,
thanks for using health care magic

Cases of tubal ligation failures have been reported thus

the first thing to do will be getting a pregnancy test done.

If it comes out positive, then a pelvic ultrasound will be very

imperative to locate the position of the pregnancy.

If the pregnancy test comes out negative, that will be good

and other possibilities would have to be investigated.

It is normal in certain periods to have reduced blood flow and it becomes

a problem when it is repeated.

So, go for pregnancy test and stick with your doctor for follow up.

Best regards
Dr Achuo
