Is There Any Possibility Of Pregnancy As I Had Tied My Tubes?

i had my tubes tied almost 16 years ago and was wondering if there is any way that i might be pregnant now? I have been having many symptoms of a pregnancy. I am 46 years old and have not had a period now for over 2 months and my belly has developed a pouch.

hello and thank you for asking HCM,

I understand your concern but the risk to get pregnant is very low, less than 1 %. I recommend you to do a pregnancy test. However, regarding to your age, this could also be menopausal symptoms. My suggestion is to visit your gynecologist in bot cases, despite the test is negative or positive to make a detailed examination.

I hope this answer was helpful to you.
