Objective: To review the risks and benefits of elective oophorectomy and to make a clinical recommendation for an appropriate age when benefits of this procedure outweigh the risks. Design: The risks and benefits of oophorectomy as detailed in published articles are reviewed with regard to quality-of-life issues and mortality outcomes in oophorectomized versus nonoophorectomized women from five diseases linked to ovarian hormones (coronary heart disease, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, stroke… Expand

Prophylactic oophorectomy in premenopausal women and long-term health
TLDR
The potential adverse effects of prophylactic bilateral oophorectomy on heart health, neurological health, bone health and quality of life should be carefully weighed against its potential benefits for cancer risk reduction in women at average risk of ovarian cancer. Expand
Prophylactic bilateral oophorectomy jeopardizes long-term health
TLDR
For premenopausal women who are not at markedly increased risk for ovarian or breast cancer, prophylactic oophorectomy should be discouraged (FIGURE). Expand
Salpingectomy as a Means to Reduce Ovarian Cancer Risk
TLDR
The rationale for salpingectomy as an ovarian cancer risk reduction strategy is provided and it is postulated that bilateral salpedectomy with ovarian retention (BSOR), may have a public health benefit for women undergoing benign gynecologic surgery. Expand
Ovarian Conservation Versus Removal at the Time of Hysterectomy for Benign Gynecological Diseases
TLDR
The purpose of this review article is to summarize and critically evaluate the existing evidences regarding the impact of ovarian conservation versus removal on specific health issues of the individual. Expand
Pre-diagnosis oophorectomy, estrogen therapy and mortality in a cohort of women diagnosed with breast cancer
TLDR
Information on prior TAHBSO and estrogen use can inform risk of death from both breast cancer and cardiovascular disease among breast cancer survivors. Expand
Bilateral oophorectomy in relation to risk of postmenopausal breast cancer: confounding by nonmalignant indications for surgery?
TLDR
Results indicate that breast cancer risk reductions conferred by bilateral oophorectomy are not strongly confounded by failure to account for nonmalignant indications for surgery. Expand
Bilateral oophorectomy is not associated with increased mortality: the California Teachers Study.
TLDR
Surgical menopause due to bilateral oophorectomy vs. naturalMenopause does not increase all-cause, cardiovascular, or cancer mortality, overall and by menopausal hormone therapy use status. Expand
Potential adverse effects of prophylactic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy on skin aging in premenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy for benign conditions
TLDR
Prophylactic BSO in the presence of dermatological conditions is a significant independent risk factor for worsening skin laxity/sagging and texture/dryness in premenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy for benign conditions. Expand
Hysterectomy and concurrent oophorectomy for endometrial cancer: which women benefit?
TLDR
The risks and benefits of oophorectomy, as well as the literature concerning oophOREctomy in young women with endometrial cancer, are presented. Expand
Increased cardiovascular mortality after early bilateral oophorectomy
TLDR
Bilateral oophorectomy performed before age 45 years is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, especially with cardiac mortality, however, estrogen treatment may reduce this risk. Expand

Hysterectomy, Oophorectomy, and Subsequent Ovarian Cancer Risk
TLDR
Hysterectomy approximately halves the risk of ovarian cancer, possibly because of altered ovarian blood flow or the opportunity that hystereCTomy provides for examining the ovaries. Expand
Ovarian Conservation at the Time of Hysterectomy for Benign Disease
TLDR
Evidence suggests that oophorectomy increases the subsequent risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and osteoporosis and whereas 14,000 women die of ovarian cancer every year, by the time they reach age 80, 47 fewer women will have died from ovarian cancer, but 838 more women will has died from CHD and 158 more will have die from hip fracture. Expand
Fracture Risk After Bilateral Oophorectomy in Elderly Women
TLDR
The increase in fracture risk among women who underwent bilateral oophorectomy after natural menopause is consistent with the hypothesis that androgens produced by the postmenopausal ovary are important for endogenous estrogen production that protects against fractures. Expand
Risk of Cardiovascular Disease by Hysterectomy Status, With and Without Oophorectomy: The Women’s Health Initiative Observational Study
TLDR
Multivariate models suggest that hysterectomy is not the major determinant of this outcome; rather, CVD risk may be due to the more adverse initial risk profile of women who had undergone hystEREctomy. Expand
Bilateral oophorectomy and breast cancer risk reduction among women with a family history.
TLDR
Data support oophorectomy as a valid breast cancer prevention option for women of all risk levels. Expand

TLDR
The potential benefits of estrogen or estrogen/ androgen therapy on libido and mood are discussed, as are findings that estrogen-androgen therapy correlated with less anxiety and hostility and with increased positive feelings when compared with estrogen-only treatment. Expand
Survival patterns after oophorectomy in premenopausal women: a population-based cohort study.
TLDR
Investigation of survival patterns in a population-based sample of women who had received an oophorectomy for a non-cancer indication before the onset of menopause found that prophylactic bilateral oophoractomy undertaken before age 45 years is associated with increased mortality. Expand
Ovarian carcinoma: A review of the significance of familial risk factors and the role of prophylactic oophorectomy in cancer prevention
TLDR
Current data on the significance of family history and how prophylactic oophorectomy should be used in different risk groups are reviewed, finding that at least 1000 cases of ovarian cancer may be prevented if PO is diligently practiced during hysterectomy. Expand
Androgen deficiency in the oophorectomized woman.
TLDR
Studies of both the consequences of oophorectomy and the effects of testosterone replacement are consistent with an important role for androgens in female sexual function and psychological well-being. Expand
Hysterectomy, oophorectomy, and endogenous sex hormone levels in older women: the Rancho Bernardo Study.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that the postmenopausal ovary remains a critical source of androgen throughout the lifespan of older women and the clinical consequences of lower testosterone levels years after oophorectomy are unknown. Expand
