Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I read your question, yes there is a remote possibility of getting pregnant after ligation. However what sounds from your case is that here pregnancy is very least likely. The negative test ate pretty reassuring, you must not be now worried a lot but yes the sonography is important to be sure about the case of the bleeding, so I would suggest don't be worried a lot but go ahead with what your doctor advised.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
