Gave birth 4/23, had tubal ligation 4/24, had sex 4/30 and several times since then with no protection. could i be pregnant?!?!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is possible: Tubal ligation is about 99% effective in preventing pregnancy. That means there is a chance you could be pregnant. It is just a very small chance. You should get an OTC pregnancy test or see your doctor to see if you are pregnant.
