A member asked:
I had my tubes removed after i had my son, we breastfed and i just had my period 5 months pp but now i'm a few days late. i know breastfeeding can mess with your cycle but with having my tubes removed give me irregular cycles?

Postpartum tubal: Having a tubal ligation or a fimbrectomy as you described, does not cause menstrual irregularity. When women breastfeed, their cycles are often suppressed or more infrequent.
