Can I still have children after teratoma surgery

The pace of life is getting faster and faster, and people are finding that the problem of infertility is also increasing. Experts tell us that the teratoma problem, which is usually ignored by everyone, is also one of the causes of infertility. The following is a detailed introduction to whether you can still have children after teratoma surgery?

Teratoma is an important cause of female infertility. In fact, the establishment of a normal ovulation cycle requires the normal function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis. Dysfunction of any of these parts may lead to anovulation, thus causing amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, functional uterine bleeding, etc., which may lead to infertility. Infertility caused by this teratoma is called teratoma-related infertility.

Under normal circumstances, various hormones are kept in balance. If this balance is broken for some reason (too much or too little of a certain hormone), it will cause teratoma, which will cause corresponding clinical manifestations. Teratoma is an important cause of infertility.

During examination of teratoma infertility, it will be obvious that the ovarian capsule on both sides has thickened and enlarged. Long-term observation may also reveal subtle characteristics such as amenorrhea, obesity, and increased, coarser and darker body hair.

Teratoma and emotional factors are related to excessive or insufficient secretion of hormones in the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian gonadal axis of women; metabolic dysfunction, etc., leading to the following diseases causing infertility: ovulation disorder, amenorrhea, polycystic ovary syndrome, hirsutism and virilization, hyperprolactinemia, luteal insufficiency, functional uterine bleeding, ovulatory bleeding, ovarian insufficiency, premature ovarian failure, etc. Among them, ovulation disorder is more common.

Hormone regulation plays an important role in our physiology. If the hormone balance is broken, it will cause a series of problems. In real life, the biggest culprit for hormone fluctuations is teratoma. Therefore, I hope all female friends will pay attention and never cause infertility due to neglect.

Generally speaking, mature teratomas have a better prognosis. Surgery can completely remove them without the risk of recurrence. Menstruation will be normal after surgery and fertility will not be affected.
