I was just diagnosed with a dermoid cyst on one of my ovaries. The doctor has said the cyst is large enough that he is going to have to remove the ovary with the cyst. What are the side effects to my hormones with only one ovary?

the one ovary will produce all the hormones you need.

The one ovary will take over for the other, so you the ovary left will ovulate all the time instead of taking turns. I had one ovary removed 22 years ago and have had no problem. You won't notice any difference.

I had a partial hysterectomy approximately five-6 years in the past and used to be advised that typically even after leaving the ovaries in menopause would nonetheless occur. I used to be additionally advised that later at the ovaries ultimately discover that the paintings that they're doing is not wanted, in order that they quit running (precise tale). So it customarily is simply menopause. See your surgeon regardless that.
