IMLS has taken appropriate steps to incorporate information quality criteria into IMLS information dissemination practices. 2. As a matter of good and effective agency information resources management, IMLS reviews the quality (including the objectivity, utility, and integrity) of information before it is disseminated.
Removal of one ovary still allows a woman to continue to menstruate and to have children, as long as the remaining ovary is not damaged. When both ovaries are removed, menstrual periods stop, a woman can no longer become pregnant, and estrogen and progesterone are no longer produced by the reproductive system.
Removal of the ovaries after menopause also impacts a womanâs hormonal balance. The statement that is often told to patients â âyou are in menopause, your ovaries are not doing anything anywayâ is certainly NOT true. After menopause, our ovaries are still responsible for producing 50% of our androgens.
