You will still have a period every month because the uterine lining will not be affected (unless there was damage to the other ovary, which unfortunately does happen sometimes).





It *may* make it more difficult for you to get pregnant, but not necessarily. The second ovary may take over ovulating every month, or you may ovulate only half as often. (Probably *not* every other month; it's random.) Even in this case, it would likely take twice as long to conceive, but not really be more *difficult*. The only way to know for sure is to try.





If you want to know if you are ovulating every month, you could use the basal body temperature method. The short version is that you take your temperature every morning before you get out of bed or do *anything*. When it goes up several tenths of a degree compared to the previous few days, you have ovulated (and it's too late to get pregnant that month).





If you want more details, I would suggest you read the book, _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler. It is a fantastic resource with lots of information.
Reply:My sister had the same surgery when she was seventeen. She had five children who are wonderful. She has many grandchildren from those children she gave birth to.


Each person is different.
Reply:I had the same experience as you and now I have 4 children. I always had my regular period. Less than a year after my ovary was removed, I became pregnant. My eldest child is 22 years old now. I was treated with "Danocrine" and "clomid". So don't worry YOU CAN STILL HAVE LOTS OF KIDS. You can email me at sasanti_ts@yahoo.com. Good Luck!
Reply:I'm not a doctor, but I'd imagine they would be regular with a reduced chance of becoming pregnant.





I say this because the ovarys produce several of the key hormones for the cycles and you've still got one. Also, the ovaries don't have anything to do with the build up and break down of the uteran lining. Now, the cycle is just the realease of an egg or more than one egg, but there is no set pattern for which ovary sends the egg down. So, lacking one ovary I'd say it's a little tougher, but the body is quite amazing so you never know. Hopefully removing those things from you will keep you healthy. Good luck.
Reply:Clincally I'm not sure, but I had my right ovary and fallopian tube removed when I was 16. I still had periods every month, however, every other month, one was worse than the other, so I could tell the difference of which month I was ovulating. The doctors told me that I would most likely not be able to concieve...they said that in 1994, I had a little girl in 1998. In 2004 I was diagnosed w/ cervical cancer and had to have part of my cervix removed. The doctors told me I could NEVER carry another child full term. In Oct. 2005 I not only carried 1 baby, but 2 for 35 weeks. It was the roughest ordeal I have ever endured, but it baffeled medical science b/c I only had the one ovary drop 2 eggs (fraternal twins) and I carried them for MUCH longer than they ever expected...so...your body will let you know...good luck to you!!
