Hi, Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. After analyzing your symptoms I feel you might be pregnant, but chances of pregnancy after tubal ligation is rare. So, kindly get a urine pregnancy test done or serum beta HCG level checked. If this is negative, see a gyanec doc, get a pelvic examination done and if required a scan pelvis also. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow-ups. If you like my answers kindly rate it, and write a review as well.

I am so sorry to hear about this delayed menses and all the inconveniences this has caused you. I don't think it actually represents ectopic pregnancy but we should do a simple urine pregnancy test to rule out any possible pregnancy. Generally, the pain of ectopic pregnancy is more severe and rarely occurs barely 2weeks after a possible pregnancy unless in a very rare to come by few. This should be more of your menses than any other thing.
Delayed menses are not so uncommon as many think. I will suggest at this point that you do the pregnancy test. If you are pregnant, then treat this as a matter of urgency. if you are not, please patiently wait and observe before rushing to seek any immediate medical attention.
I hope you find this useful and informative. If you have more questions, please ask us and we shall gladly provide answers. I wish you good health. Dr. Ditah, MD.
