What are the consequences of ovarian removal?

I believe everyone knows the importance of ovaries to female friends. If there is a problem with the ovaries of female friends, it will not only affect the physical health of female friends but may also affect the fertility of female friends. Therefore, we recommend that female friends must pay attention to protecting their ovaries in daily life. If there is an abnormality in the ovaries, it must be taken seriously. Below we will introduce the consequences of ovarian removal.

The ovaries are the source of life for the egg cells, which are necessary for the development of life. Does ovarian removal mean that women will no longer be able to have children?

Does removing the ovaries mean infertility? This cannot be generalized. Women have bilateral ovaries. Generally speaking, if one ovary is removed and the other ovary is retained and still has good function, then the remaining ovary can fully compensate and will not affect fertility. If one ovary is completely removed and the other is partially removed, the ovary still has a great regenerative and compensatory ability, and the remaining ovary can still release eggs, so fertility is still possible. Of course, if both ovaries are removed, there will be no egg cells left and fertility will naturally be impossible.

In addition to egg cells, the ovaries are also the source of estrogen. Some patients worry that if both ovaries are removed, will they become "female men" because of the loss of estrogen protection?

It must be acknowledged that the development of female sexual characteristics is entirely dependent on the estrogen secreted by the ovaries. However, once the puberty period has passed and female sexual characteristics are already present, estrogen only plays a role in maintaining female sexual characteristics and is required in very small amounts. Adrenaline is fully capable of replacing the ovaries. Therefore, even if both ovaries are completely removed, it will not affect the female's sexual characteristics or change her appearance or body shape.

Will removing my ovaries affect my sex life?

When adult women have to have both ovaries removed due to ovarian tumors or other diseases, they worry that the removal of the ovaries will affect their sexual desire. Will sexual desire be affected if the ovaries are lost? In fact, the estrogen produced by female ovaries is the guarantee for the development of female sexual characteristics, but once they mature, the generation and maintenance of their sexual desire depends only on thinking, emotions and stimulation of sexually sensitive parts, which have nothing to do with estrogen. In fact, because the ovaries are removed, menstruation will no longer occur, so women do not have to worry about pregnancy, and their sexual desire may even increase.

What women need to worry about is that due to estrogen deficiency, they may experience vaginal dryness during sexual intercourse. At this time, a small amount of estrogen can be supplemented to relieve the symptoms of dryness.

Once ovarian diseases occur, they should be treated in time. The above article gives us a detailed introduction to the consequences of ovarian removal.
