Tubal Ligation and Pregnancy: Understanding Fertility After Tube Clamping

No, if the fallopian tubes are clamped, you cannot get pregnant. Clamping the fallopian tubes, a procedure known as tubal ligation or "tying the tubes," is a form of permanent birth control that blocks or seals the tubes, preventing eggs from traveling from the ovaries to the uterus. This prevents fertilization from occurring, thus eliminating the possibility of pregnancy.
