Can you get pregnant if your tubes are tied clipped and burned?

Possible, not likely: Even when the tubes are tied, clipped and burned, they can grow back and become open. Pregnancy would be very unusual, but not impossible.

Not likely: It is highly unlikely to get pregnant. You were taught this when you consented to the surgery. Nothing has changed since then.

Unlikely : Although no sterilization is 100%, pregnancy is unlikely. The failure rate can be from 1:1,000 to 3,500 depending on the type of procedure performed. If you have symptoms though, check a urine preg test ASAP. You have a very high risk of ectopic if your procedure fails. If you want a normal pregnancy, tubal reversals are possible vs in-vitro if needed. Talk to your Doc and trust your TL.

Yes, : Yes, you can. Without a reversal of the original procedure, the odds are not good, but it can certainly happen.

Yes, : Yes, it is possible to get pregnant after a tubal ligation (having your tubes tied). It is rare and unlikely, but definitely possible. If you do get pregnant after a tubal ligation, there is a higher chance that it is an ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy that is located in the fallopian tubes). An ectopic pregnancy can be a medical emergency and requires immediate medical attention. If you have a positive pregnancy test or think you are pregnant after a tubal ligation - you should contact your obgyn or primary care physician right away so they can monitor you and determine if it is a pregnancy in the uterus (normal) or a pregnancy in the tubes (ectopic pregnancy and not normal). I hope this helps!
