I understand your concern and I will do everything I can to answer your question.

There is a chance it could be a normal or ectopic pregnancy. After a tubal ligation there is about a 1/1000 chance of getting pregnant each year. The odds are similar regardless of the way the tubes are blocked. If you are having pregnancy symptoms and had an unusual period recently, you should get checked for pregnancy soon because it could be a tubal (or ectopic) pregnancy which needs immediate treatment.

Other things can cause an irregular period and pregnancy symptoms: thyroid or other hormone imbalances, a double ovulation (both ovaries release an egg the same month) or an ovarian cyst, stress or a change in medications.

I hope that helps and best of luck to you
