Tubal Ligation and Pregnancy: Understanding the Risks

It is not possible for an egg to get into the uterus after tubal ligation. Tubal ligation is a permanent method of contraception that involves cutting, tying, or blocking the fallopian tubes, which are the tubes that carry eggs from the ovaries to the uterus. Once the fallopian tubes are blocked, eggs can no longer travel to the uterus and fertilization cannot occur.
