An oophorectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of one or both ovaries. This procedure may be performed to treat various conditions, including ovarian cancer, endometriosis, or ovarian cysts. Depending on the extent of the surgery, it can have significant hormonal implications, especially if both ovaries are removed, leading to menopause. Oophorectomy can also be part of a larger surgery, such as a hysterectomy.
