Hi,

Delayed periods can happen after gynecological procedures including tubal ligation. Pregnancy can happen if you already had unprotected intercourse before the procedure. You can go for a urine pregnancy test to confirm whether you are pregnant or not. Wishing all the best.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
