I have one Ovary and I am very confused regarding fertility and my periods. I thought by having one ovary I would only have a period 1 in 2 months but I have one very month. One month I have a heavy period and the next it is very light but I have a period for about 4 days and then have a break for a week and then start again. The next month I am fine and have a normalNormal saline flush period.
I am worried that my Ovary is working over time and my fertility will drop and I wont have as long as a womenWomen's way who has two ovaries. When I has my operation the effects were never explained to me.

When you have an ovary removed the other one takes over and does the job just as well!!
