A member asked:

What are signs of pregnancy after tubal ligation?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Post tubal pregnancy: You should see your gynecologist and have a urine or serum pregnancy test done. A pregnancy subsequent to tubal ligation is at very high risk for a ectopic pregnancy and this will require laparoscopic intervention and could be dangerous if not caught in time.
