YES IT IS!! First off, sterilization is not quite 100% it is more in the 99.??% range, it is more likely after your tubes have been tied for some time, but yes it is possible. My best friend became pregnant with twins 5 years after hers was tied. Though it is very important for you to be checked out by your doctor if you suspect it. The occurrence of tubal pregnancy is greatly increased if you become pregnant while your tubes are tied.

Yes anything is possible, the for sure way I know is not doing it. My girl sister have 6 kids, 5 boys 1 girl, that last boy was from her tubes being tied. The doctor told her the came untied.

It's not very likely, but it does happen. My husband's cousin had her tubes tied and a few years later was tired all the time; she was pregnant with twins... big shock!
You shouldn't totally depend on any one form of birth control; there is ALWAYS a failure rate; it might be really small, but if you really don't want to have a baby, then make sure.

I think you have about a 0.03% chance of pregnancy or even less than that. It's very unlikely. I wish my tubes were tied.

Did you have your tubes cut and tied, or just tied? If just tied then yes it is possible, because they can become undone.

The chances are very slim but YES it is possible. Tubals are 99.5 - 99.85% effective. It DOES happen.
Actually, my IUD is rated as being more effective than having your tubes tied.

yes, but only if there just "tied" meaning they just tied the tubes. now if there what they call "tied, clipped, and burned" meaning, they've totally been disconnected from the ovaries. you can't. but they don't practice, just "tieing" them now and days anyways.

yes it is it is called a tubal pregnacy and can really hurt if you think you are go see a doctor now before you are 18 weeks along and they can remove it after 18 weeks they cant do any thing and you run the risk of losing the baby and you.

It is very unlikely. Try doing a home test if you think you are. If you want to become pregnant, you should talk to your dr about options. You can have a reversal, or try in vitro.

I heard that it can happen. Best to get a pregnancy test. Target sells their generic brand for a dollar. Go to the store and get one.
