A member asked:

I had a tubal ligation almost 4 years ago. my periods are usually a 40 day cycle. 18 days late. some cramping. sore breasts. what could be wrong with me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Run a PG test: Run a pregnancy test or go see your GYN MD as tubal ligations can and do fail, often resulting in ectopic pregnancies.
