My friend who had her tubes cut and burned about 15 years ago thinks she is pregnant. Can this really happen?

POSSIBLY, BERY UNLIKELY THOUGH. IF IT DID HAPPEN, THE RISKS OF IT BEING A TUBAL PREGNANCY ARE EXTREMELY HIGH. SHE SHOULD GO TO THE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE A TUBAL PREGNANCY CAN CAUSE DEATH IF IT RUPTURES

I had my tubes tied and burned in July 1981. I have never gotten pregnant, but the doctor did warn me that it was only 98% effective. So, in some cases, it could be possible.

In very rare cases, yes it can. She could also have a tubal pregnancy. If this is the case the baby will die and she could experience severe pain when the tube burst. She needs to go see a Dr immediatly if she really does suspect pregnancy.

It is absolutly possible to get pregnant after tubes have been tied but after fifteen years it becomes less likley. Have her take a home PG test.

Yes, although very unlikely. In this procedure, it is possible for the tubes to heal enough to allow an egg to pass into the uterus.

My sister had her tubes tied and got pregnant twice. I think you can get pregnant but you'll end up having a miscarriage.

I have heard of people that has happened too. My gyno told me when I had it done that there is a small % that it could happen.
She needs to go to the doctor because it could be ectopic (tubal) pregnancy.

I think that the only sure thing is to have the uterus removed otherwise there is always a chance.
