Can you get pregnant if one third of the right ovary is removed?

Patient's question:

In 2003, I underwent laparoscopic surgery and was misdiagnosed with bilateral ovarian papillary tumors. Subsequently, I had an excisional surgery, where one-third of my right ovary was removed for pathology. The pathology report revealed that it was not a tumor but rather that there was fluid accumulation in the abdomen, causing the ovary to be swollen and discolored. Numerous yellow, fuzzy, greenish-like growths had formed on the swollen surface, which were not the so-called tumors. If I get married, will it affect fertility?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to go to the hospital for relevant examinations. If the left fallopian tube is normal and there are no other factors affecting pregnancy, it generally will not affect pregnancy. However, do not hurry and maintain a relaxed and pleasant mood. The couple should be harmonious. As long as one ovary is present and it is functioning normally, with normal ovulation and hormone secretion, there should not be a significant problem.
