Does removing one ovary have any effect?

Does removing one ovary have any effect on the body? This issue is of greatest concern to many patients with ovarian diseases. Some women have ovarian lesions due to various reasons in their lives, and the ovaries are partial and serious, which has seriously affected the normal operation of their physiological functions. Therefore, they have to undergo oophorectomy. However, since some women have one ovary removed, it is not known whether this will have any impact on the body.

The ovaries are the female gonadal organs. Every woman has a pair of ovaries, which, in addition to secreting hormones, also have the function of laying eggs. One egg is produced by each ovary every month. The egg must mature before it can be released from the ovary. Therefore, if one ovary is removed, it can still secrete eggs and become pregnant, but if both sides are removed, pregnancy will not be possible. The function of the uterus is to nurture the fetus. If the uterus is removed, it will be impossible to have children. Removal of both ovaries can cause premature aging because there is no estrogen secretion. If you are unable to conceive, do not remove your ovaries and uterus lightly.

If one ovary is removed and the other ovary is functioning well, pregnancy is possible, but the pregnancy rate is lower than normal. Normally, the diet should be light, and lamb, shrimp, crab, eel, salted fish, black fish and other foods should be avoided. Eat more lean meat, chicken, eggs, quail eggs, crucian carp, turtle, white fish, cabbage, asparagus, celery, spinach, cucumber, winter melon, mushrooms, tofu, kelp, seaweed, fruits, etc. Avoid foods that are hot, coagulant, or contain hormones, such as longan, red dates, donkey-hide gelatin, and royal jelly.

From the above introduction, it can be seen that ovarian removal does have a certain impact on women's bodies. Although this ovarian removal surgery can save women's lives, it still has a great impact on women's basic physiological functions. Therefore, women must seek treatment as soon as possible when facing ovarian diseases to avoid worsening of the disease.
