Yes, you can still have periods after one ovary is removed, as long as the remaining ovary is healthy and functioning. The remaining ovary can continue to produce hormones and release eggs, which are necessary for the menstrual cycle. However, some women may experience changes in their menstrual cycle, such as irregular periods or changes in flow. If both ovaries are removed, menstruation will cease entirely.

Is any irregularities in periods when only one ovary is present?
Yes, irregularities in menstrual cycles can occur even when only one ovary is present. The remaining ovary can still produce hormones and release eggs, but various factors such as hormonal imbalances, stress, or underlying health conditions can lead to irregular periods. Additionally, the absence of one ovary may affect overall hormonal regulation, potentially contributing to menstrual irregularities. Regular monitoring and consultation with a healthcare provider can help address any concerns.
What would happen if i didn't have a ovary?
First, it would depend on why you only have one ovary-- most females have two. But sometimes an ovary is removed because of a disease like cancer, although it's more common to remove both ovaries when cancer is diagnosed. But if for some reason you have one ovary, you would still have your period (although some sources say women with only one ovary go through menopause earlier). And you could still become pregnant (if you wanted to). In fact, unless you have other conditions (like cysts), having only one ovary should not be a big problem in your life.
Is an egg from one ovary able to move to the other ovary?
Eggs only move from the ovaries to the uterus. They never move from one ovary to the other ovary.
Is it possible to get pregnant with one ovary after a hysterectomy and having an opening and yes the ovary still produces eggs?
No. During a hysterectomy your uterus is removed and, even if the ovaries do remain, there is no longer a way for sperm and the egg to come into contact with each other.
