Could I be pregnant with tubes tied and used a condom?

I have 2 children and my tubes have been tied for years. I am horrible at tracking my period. I had sex mid August, we used a condom and I was cramping at the time thinking my period was on the way. It is irregular. Comes every 35 days. i must have been ovulating. Currently I still havent got it, but calculated it possibly coming closer to the 8th. The past couple days I've felt fatigued, and sick in my stomach. Brushed it off that it was stress from work because I'm rarely sick. I never got morning sickness in any of my other pregnancies.

age could be factor… every 35 days is abnormal you could have PCOS or something or could be early onset menopause depending on age and how strategic your ligation was

My friend just had her 5th baby after having her tubes tied 4 years ago. Definitely possible.

You can be. But no one would know. Only a pregnancy test can be sure

Tubes tied and used a condom? Then I highly doubt it.

I’d definitely go get tested. Pregnancy can happen after having tubes tied and it can often end up a ectopic pregnancy so you definitely wanna find out sooner rather than later.

I got pregnant less than a year after I had my tubes tied. :woman_shrugging:t2: Take a test. Make an appointment.

I had an ectopic pregnancy 13 years after my tubes was tied.

Go see your Dr. Better to be safe

Take a pregnancy test? If negative, I suggest making an appointment with your obgyn and explaining your symptoms. You can expect a sono and Pap smear.

I ended up having a complete molar pregnancy (extremely rare and deadly) 2 years after my tubes were done.

First thing I would do is go buy a pregnancy test. Take it. And go from there. I don’t think you’re pregnant but take a test anyway :woman_shrugging:t2:

If they weren’t burnt or removed I’ve heard of tubes healing or worse having an ectopic pregnancy. You could try a cheap test with first morning urine and if that is negative and youre still wondering you can go to the Dr just to be sure. It may just be stress or uti or something else entirely but it’s fairly easy to rule out pregnancy. Because of condom use as well I think the chances are low but not zero.

Go pee on a stick and find out

Get the test. It is possible and it is possible that it is ectopic and that can be life threatening. If positive get to a Dr asap to be sure the fertilized egg is where it should be

Highly unlikely! But anything is possible I guess! But I’d say with tubes tied and a condom you can’t get more protection than that :joy:

Had my tubes tied on Oct 11, 2004
April of 2006 found out I was pregnant!!!

Take a test and find out

Highly unlikely but possible. Take a test

not likely maybe your starting menopause? either way take a test…

It’s unlikely, but possible. Condoms fail all the time and women end up pregnant after a tubal all the time. Seems like you would be extremely early on though. Pee on a stick and contact your GYN to see about a blood test.

It is always a possibilty to get pregnant. I don’t think you are pregnant however. When in doubt take a test or see a doctor.

I would say that is like a 1 in a million type thing so probably not.

I’m a tubes tied baby so I mean ya it’s possible lol. Take a test.

Well. For one pregnancy is different everytime. New pregnancies can lead to different experiences… I think you need to just go take a test so you can put yourself at ease. Might be less draining then reading all our comments for something to settle your worries.

According to my doctor, you have a less than 1% chance of becoming pregnant after a tubal ligation. I’m part of that less than 1% chance statistic. Yes, it’s definitely possible. I have no idea what we’d do without our fifth child! A blessing we never knew we wanted!

I use the foam and the pill and still got pregnant. We use a condom and my tubes were tied and I got pregnant… twice. One burst and cause massive internal bleeding which 20 years later, I just lost everything. All my woman parts, my gallbladder a section of my intestines because of that scar tissue.

Not likely but take a test just to be sure.

My mom had my little brother with her tubes being tied

I knew someone who got pregnant after she had her tubes tied & he had a vasectomy. Another person I knew got pg twice after 2 tubals anything is possible. You could also be going through menopause. You could feel like you’re about to start to every month but not get it until everything just stops. I would take a test just in case.

Yes you can get pregnant after a tubal. I just had a baby in May after a tubal was done March of 14

Dang ladies, I’d be so mad of I had my tubes tied and got pregnant, that’s one hefty bill to prevent an even larger bill resulting in double the bill.
Moral of the story, if God wants you to have a child it’s going to happen, lol I have three kids and was on bc with each one still got pregnant, now my tubes are tied and now I’m all worried lol maybe hysterectomy is my solution. Ad my husband and I are sexually active a lot.

Yes its possible… my husband had a vasectomy over 10 yrs ago… I ended up pregnant this past march. I honestly believe that of this could happen… it’s very possible to get pregnant with your tubes tied as well. Anything is possible

Yes it is possible. I’d recommend taking a test. If test is negative and you’re still missing a period or by now 2 ask for a blood test at your doctors.

It’s possible, my husbands father had the snip, used s condom and she was on the pill… my husband is also a twin… so I guess these things do happen…

Yes it’s possible - I went in for tubal ligation during my c section with my twins (babies 3&4) I had them cut and tied and the surgeons made it very clear that 1 in 200 women would still fall pregnant due to the tubes ‘knitting back together again’ was their phrasing - plus condoms are only 94-97% effective - take a home test or go see your doctor x

take a test to be sure
