A member asked:
I had an ovarectomy 2 mos ago and no longer get periods. i don't mind not getting them, but is it something i should get checked out?

Oopherectomy: I assume only one ovary removed. Then yes see physician. If both periods will be never come again. Driven by hormones from ovary.

No: If i understand you correctly, you had your ovaries removed 2 months ago. If this is right, you will not get periods any more. If you still have an ovary remaining, your periods should come back.
