After 17 years,its rare that tubes get recanalised. If there is a tubal ligation failure, chances are that wont happen so late. At 44,there could be hormonal problems. First get a pregnancy test just to rule out out. After that you can get an hormonal profile out to check for imbalance.Chances are that pregnancy isnt any issue here.
