There is no conclusive data on whether removing one ovary affects a woman's fertility
"Our meta-study shows that women with only one ovary are less likely to have IVF success than women with both ovaries intact," says Karolinska Karolinska Institutet, Associate Professor, Department of Oncology Pathology, Karolinska Institutet said Kenny Rodriguez-Wallberg, a consultant at the University Hospital of Cardiff
When conducting meta-studies, researchers review published studies and compare the results to their own research perspectives
In the group of women with only one ovary, their odds of having children and pregnancy were about 30 percent lower than those in the group with two ovaries
"We need to recognize the impact of removing one ovary on fertility," said Kenny Rodriguez-Wallberg
One reason fertility was previously thought to be unaffected is that most studies conducted were too small to provide significant results
The researchers now want to examine whether surgical removal of the ovaries has other health effects, such as reduced hormone production, that might have an impact on the development of other diseases
The research was funded by the Swedish Research Council, the Swedish Cancer Society, the Swedish Children's Cancer Foundation, Radium Hemmet and the Stockholm Regional Cancer Research Fund
