No, an ovary cannot grow back after removal.
Understanding Ovarian Removal and Regeneration
Once an ovary is surgically removed (ovariectomy), it cannot regenerate. The statement "New ovarian tissue does not grow" directly addresses this. While remnants of ovarian tissue might remain if the removal wasn't completely clean, this is not the same as the ovary regrowing. These remnants are simply leftover pieces from the original ovary and do not represent new growth. They often result from the ovary being firmly attached to surrounding tissue during the surgical procedure.
- Surgical Removal: Ovariectomy is a complete removal of the ovary.
- Remnants vs. Regeneration: The presence of ovarian remnants is not the same as the ovary regrowing. The ovary itself will not regenerate new tissue.
