Will ovarian removal cause aging?

Some female friends have one ovary that is diseased and needs to be removed. In this case, the other ovary can be preserved. Because ovarian removal causes great harm to the body and mind, many female friends are also worried about whether there will be side effects if one of their ovaries is removed, and whether it will accelerate aging. Will the uterus and ovary decline if one side is removed?

First of all, the ovaries are like our kidneys, lungs, testicles, etc., and there are two of them. Once one of them becomes diseased and needs to be removed, the other one is fully capable of taking on all the functions and can still ovulate normally and secrete estrogen. Therefore, women who have had one ovary removed do not need to worry too much.

Secondly, the effects of unilateral ovary removal will naturally be less than those of non-ovary removal. For example, the chance of pregnancy will be greatly reduced, which is a big impact for those who still want to get pregnant. In addition, there will be adhesions inside the pelvis after unilateral ovary removal, and other symptoms should be prevented.

Finally, if one side of the ovary is removed, the other side of the uterus and ovary must be well protected to prevent the other side of the uterus and ovary from becoming diseased.
