Hormonal shift: Tubal ligation is 99.5% effective, but if your cycle wasn't normal, take a pregnancy test, just to be safe. But it is very unlikely that you are pregnant. It's more likely that your period was unusual due to a hormonal shift from stress, travel, a change in your weight or amount of exercise. If it's just a one time problem, i wouldn't worry, if this keeps happening, i'd get your hormones checked.
