What happens if you only have one ovary, but you loose that one due to an ovarian Cyst?? You become infertile?

No ovaries=no eggs to fertilize.

What happens if you only have one ovary, but you loose that one due to an ovarian Cyst?? You become infertile?
yup
Reply:yep you do
Reply:That happened to my mom when she was pregnant with my older sister, and she was still fertile enough to have me! I think that the one ovary just works double time. She still got the normal amount of periods, though.

Sorry I just realized that you were saying that the person would be without ovaries. my mom just lost one. But if you don't have an ovary, you can't produce eggs, and therefore cannot reproduce.
Reply:technically yes. if you still have the ovary right now though, you can probably harvest the eggs before it is removed so that you could still have a biological child. If you do this, then when you are ready for a child you and your partner would have to use IVF (in-vitro fertilization) to combine your egg and his sperm to create an embryo. Dr.s could then implant your uterus with the embryo so you would still end up being able to concieve and carry your own biological child, the process of conception just gets a little more complicated!
Reply:If you have one ovulating ovary then you can still have the chance to have kids. I had an ovarian cyst that put me in the hospital for 2 days and I lost one of my ovaries, I asked the doctor the same question you asked and thats what he told me. I got bad ovarian cysts because I went off birth control after being on it for almost 10 years. Ovulation was so painful the year I was off birth control that I eventually went back on it again.
