The gallbladder maintains homeostasis by storing and concentrating bile produced by the liver, which is essential for the digestion and absorption of fats. When food enters the small intestine, the gallbladder contracts to release bile into the digestive tract, facilitating the emulsification of fats and aiding in nutrient absorption. This process helps regulate fat metabolism and ensures that the body efficiently utilizes nutrients from the diet, contributing to overall metabolic balance. Additionally, the gallbladder's ability to concentrate bile helps manage the levels of cholesterol and bilirubin, further supporting homeostasis.
You shouldn't notice any difference in your eating habits, or your ability to digest foods after gallbladder removal.
I am a virtual assistant program and do not have a physical body or the ability to have medical conditions such as gallbladder infections. If you suspect you have a gallbladder infection, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
Digestion and absorption. Yummy! The length of the the small intestine allows for more absorption time and its epithelium has specialized villi and on the villi has microvilli adding to its absorption ability. Although digestion does begin in the oral cavity turning the food we eat into a bolus, and the stomach does it's job by turning the bolus into chyme, most of the digestion and absorption takes place in the small intestine. The stomach will squeeze out chyme, in small quantities at a time, into the first part of the small intestine: the duodenum, which is where most of the digestion will take place thanks to more secretions by the gallbladder and pancreas. Then it gets moved along into the jejunum of the small intestine; more absorption along the way, and finally the to the last part of the small intestine, the ileum. At this point everything will have been digested and most of the nutrients will have been absorbed, and now off to the large intestine for its next journey out into the world...life is good!
Cancer
The gallbladder is not considered a gland because it does not produce hormones or enzymes. Its primary function is to store and concentrate bile produced by the liver, which is then released into the small intestine to aid in digestion. Glands are defined by their ability to produce and secrete substances, which the gallbladder does not do.

It should not be a problem. Consult with your physician, but the lack of a gall bladder should not affect your ability to safely reproduce.
The removal of the gallbladder can affect digestion by reducing the body's ability to properly digest fats. This can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, bloating, and indigestion. Overall health may be impacted by nutrient deficiencies and an increased risk of developing gallstones in the future. It is important to follow a healthy diet and lifestyle after gallbladder removal to manage these effects.
