A member asked:

Are irregular periods normal after a bilateral tubal ligation? i had one 8/13/2012, and my period started back in september. i've missed 2 periods

Maybe: If you just had a baby or just stopped birth control pills around the time of your tubal ligation, it could be normal. Check a pregnancy test just to make sure you are not pregnant. If you continue to skip periods, see the doctor who performed your tubal ligation and get his/her advice.
