tubes tied

I am 48 years old, gave birth to a healthy baby girl 4 years ago, i had a c-section and had my tubes litely tied, i have not had my period in 10 days, always on time in the past with my period, no sign of menopause, what are the chances of my tubes becoming untied and i maybe pregnant, took 3 pregnancy test(by product answers) all came back negative? i am going crazy.

I knew that tubal can be reversed, I just didn't know you could request them to be tied to make that easier.  Interesting.  Anyway, I wish you luck.

Do you mean that you had clamps?

Litely tied meaning that I did not want my tubes tied all the way, wanted it where they can someday come untied.

I agree with Annie.  I have started having the odd irregular period as well, and am certain I am perimenopausal.  It's pretty common in your 40's and I read that many women are perimenopausal for up to 10 years before menopause actually hits.

Also, with having your tubes tied, it is unlikely you will become pregnant naturally.  It does happen, its just not that common.  I am curious..what is litely tied?  I hadn't heard that term used before.

With three pregnancy tests giving you negatives, it does sound more like perimenopause than pregnancy.
