Oophorectomy
An oophorectomy is a surgical procedure to remove either one or both of your ovaries. The ovaries are generally almond-shaped organs that sit on each side of the uterus near the pelvis. The ovaries contain eggs and produce hormones that control your menstrual cycle.
Sometimes, depending upon the condition of the patient, a bilateral oophorectomy may be done which includes removing both the ovaries. When the surgery involves the removal of only one ovary, it's called unilateral oophorectomy.

I first discovered Medtravels when I was doing online research looking for treatment of PCOD. I have lived with the pain and discomfort for more than a couple of years now which had affected my personal and social life. But Radiofrequency ablation treatment for me has come as a blessing indeed and in just one day I could feel the improvement, the pain was gone and I could walk easily. I was nervous about traveling half way around the world to have the surgery, but upon my arrival the staff put all my worries at ease. The pre-op tests performed on me in India were tests never performed on me in the United States. Thanks again to your team.
