How often do "tubes" become untied?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
1 %: In 1% of women, the tubes may not stay blocked over time. Some of these women will unexpectedly become pregnant, and there is a high risk of ectopic or tubal pregnancy. Ectopic can be dangerous and life threatening and requires immediate treatment.
