Is Pregnancy Possible Post Tubal Ligation?

I am 50 years old . My name is Tammy I have had a tubal ligation after my 6th child almost 14 years ago. I have been experiencing some pregnancy, as well as change of life symptoms lately and wanted to see if it was possible to be pregnant after having this procedure 14 years ago. I see you will need a payment with a credit card o answer my question and at this time I do not have that to give to you so I guess I will try a different avenue to find out the answer. Thank you

Hi,
Pregnancy is less likely after tubal ligation before 14 years as now more fibrosis formed at ligation site ,so over and above tubal ligation this fibrosis makes pregnancy impossible.
The symptoms you noticed might be due to some hormonal imbalance developed due to pre.menopause.
Ok and take care.
