dear even after ligation,there are chances of conception so plz first rule out pregnancy.. and if its negative then u can use medicine for withdrawal bleed.. and if its positive then plz dont take escitalopram or any other antidepressant.
thanks

Thanks there is less chance you are pregnant as tubes are blocked the delay in periods may be due to drugs
