Suggest Treatment For Lower Abdominal Pain And Back Pain

Hi, I had my tubes cut and burned and tide almos two years ago after a c-sec. Last month I had my reg period. This month I am about 2 weeks late. Lower abdomen pain and sometimes back pain that comes and goes. I am very regular and if I have abdomen pain my period usually follows right after. But this time I am still waiting for it and nothing! Could I be pregnant?

Dear patient
With your both tubes ligated and cut There is very rare chance of you getting pregnant. But cases have been reported of pregnancy after tubal ligation. Also your periods are very regular till date and this is first time they are late. So possibility of pregnancy should be considered. I would advise 1. Urine pregnancy test 2. Ultrasound of abdomen and pelvis. Both are sensitive In diagnosis of pregnancy and ultrasound also rules out other uterine conditions. So get this done. You should visit expert gynecologist with report.
