Could The Spotting Be Implantation Bleeding Having A Tubal Ligation Few Years Ago?
Ok I m 31 yrs old and about 8-9 yrs ago I had a tubal ligation. My last period was 37 days ago so I m technically 9 days late. Is it to soon to take a pregnancy test? I know tubal ligation isn t 100% but it s been so long ago and I ve never had a missed period. My diet hasn t changed. I m not doing anything out of the norm and I m not taking any kind of medication. Also I thought I had my period and used a pantyliner but it was a tiny amount then the following day I had nothing but on the 3rd day I had another small amount if blood and never again did I see a drop. I read it could be the implantation period but idk! I ve been having migraines and I was nausea s for 2 days. And on one if those days I was vomiting through out the day.

Hello,
Your symptoms are suggestive of conception. Yes, tube ligation is not 100% successful. HCG can be detectable one week to 10 days after missed periods.
HCG is detectable faster in blood than urine. You are suggested to visit a gynae, get clinically assessed & tests are done to confirm pregnancy & get it managed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
