Missed periods after tubal ligation Posted: 08-27-08 11:43am
I had a Tubal Ligation about 8 months ago.
Since then, I've had a few regular periods
but now, I've missed two periods in a row.
I've done two pregnancy tests and they
come up negative. I don't have any signs
of pregnancy (I have three children) and
am wondering how this could be possible
and what could possiby be wrong with me.
Has this happened to anyone else?

I talked with my Woman about this. She
also had a tubaligation. This is what she
told me. After the surgery there was some
bleeding and 2 months missed periods.
After that they where monthly again but
not always the same length of time. After
about a year she missed a month entirely.
The following month it returned in huge
amounts. Then things went back on there
normal track. Unfortunatly she started
feeling more cramping than normal.
eventualy she went in for an exam and was
told she delveloped endometriosis (scare
tissue). In the end she ended up having to
have a hysterectomy.
Her doctor feels that that month she
missed is when the endometriosis started.
Not trying to scare you but trying to give
something to relate to. My advice would be
to go get an exam to make sure you are not
developing endometriosis.

I myself had a tubal done about 9 months
ago and at first my periods were not
regular but i can say that i ever missed
one. i am experiencing the worst pain in
my abdominal lower left side but i have
not missed a period. i did however go
through some other things after my tubal
and i researched them online and i
everything i read went to post tubal
ligation syndrome which of course doctors
say don't exist. anyways i would go see a
doctor and get checked out. good luck and
let us know how it goes!!!
