Oophorectomy may also be used to remove part of an ovary. The ovaries produce eggs as well as the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Removal of one ovary still allows a woman to continue to menstruate and to have children, as long as the remaining ovary is not damaged. When both ovaries are removed, menstrual periods stop, a woman can no longer become pregnant, and estrogen and progesterone are no longer produced by the reproductive system.
Ovaries are generally removed if a woman has ovarian cancer or is removing them to prevent ovarian cancer because she is at high risk. If a woman is having a hysterectomy she may also decide to have her ovaries removed even they are not diseased. This is not a one-size-fits-all decision, and it should be based on a discussion with a doctor that takes into account age, health and personal preference.
