Hello. I was wondering if anyone ever got pregnant after a tubal. I had a tubal about 3 years ago and now showing signs of pregnancy but am worried about it being ectopic. Thanks

Hopefully not! But DO run, don't walk to your doctor! (Call today!) An ectopic pregnancy is no joke. Having the tubal..you may have gotten a false pregnancy reading on a test though? Never guess on this. See your doctor, so IF you are expecting, your tube will not burst, OK? Better to know one way or another.

My sister had a tubal pregnancy and had the tube removed. Got pregnant with another tubal..had the tube repaired. Then had a third tubal. Be careful....see your doctor...I hope everything turns out to be ok.

My sister got pregnant after having a tubal ligation. This was over 25 years ago! Of course it was an ectopic pregnancy because the tubes were closed so the fertilized egg could not make its way down to the uterus. Of course she had to have the pregnancy terminated. Good luck!
