What Could Missed Periods With Severe Back Pain Post A Tubal Ligation Indicate?

So I m kinda worried, I had a period twice in April and twice in May(has never happened before) my normal is alway 3-4 days which has happened in both months at each time it came on with horrible cramping and very heavy (witch is not normal for me). June has come and gone, still no sign of a peroid. I tired Google and everything says it s very rare to get pregnant after a tubal. I was cut tied on all ends, and burned/ stomped on as he recalled it lol. My boobs don t hurt my stomach don t feel hard, only thing that s bothering me is my back, it hurts like hell and hard to sleep at night.

Tubectomy is only a contraceptive measure. It won't affect your cycles in any other way.
It is less likely to be pregnant when when you have undergone tubectomy.
One of the earliest and simplest way to know that you are pregnant or not, is by using, urine pregnancy test.
Most experts advise that you should wait at least one day after your missed period before taking a home pregnancy test, though waiting a week is considered best. This can be tough when you are anxious to find out if you're pregnant, but waiting allows for a higher degree of accuracy when taking the test, as hCG levels rise rapidly in pregnant women.
It's best to do the home pregnancy test first thing in the morning, when your urine is most concentrated and hCG levels are highest.
So I advice you to perform a test a week after missed period and with morning sample of urine. This test kits are nearly 98% accurate, so reliable.
With transvaginal ultrasonography, the diagnosis of pregnancy can be made earlier by 4-5 weeks gestation

Yet again, I duly appreciate your query to me, I do hope that have found something useful to help you and I shall be glad to answer any further apprehensions.

Sincerely,
I find this answer helpful
