Can you have a period without ovaries?

If you don’t have ovaries..like you have to get them removed, would you still have your period?

Answer #1

no. you wouldnt.

its called a histerectomy.

Answer #2

No, a hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus. An oophorectomy is the removal of the ovaries. No period (at least I couldn’t find anything saying otherwise when I searched for you).

Answer #3

I think you’ll find that you’d still have periods. Ovaries simply release eggs. The blood lining of that is lost during a period doesn’t come from the ovaries. A hysterectomy removes the entire womb so that would stop mentruation.

Answer #4

You canstill get periods even without ovaries - it’s not a hysterectomy , as that involves removal of the uterus.

Usually, removal of the ovaries causes you to go into menopause, but some women continue having their period after.
