I was gonna say, when I was in high school, I never wanted to have kids, I hated kids, and the like, but then you get a little bit older (I'm only 19), and it seems like something in your head makes you want them.... and stuff...
It works the other way as well. I always liked other people's well-behaved kids, so I assumed I would want one or two of my own someday. I gradually came to the realization that I do not have a hole in my heart for children. While planning my wedding, I read a message board where women would go on and on about "baby fever" - constantly noticing kids, having kids on the brain, just feeling incredibly excited about becoming a parent. I have never felt anything like that - ever. There is no missing piece of my life that a child would fill. Furthermore, I like my lifestyle the way it is. Within reason, I can do whatever I want whenever I want to do it, and that's very important to me. My husband and I can go out of town overnight without doing anything special, and we can have a friend or sitter take care of the cats during longer absences. I need a significant quantity of personal time and space and quiet on a regular basis...and how much of that would I get if I were the main caretaker of a baby?

I'd be pretty devestated... I've just always seen myself with a nice girl and 2 or 3 children. I've always been good with kids and little kids love me. My sister has a 19 month old now and I love her to death.

Still, I think I would be able to love a child who didn't carry my genes just as much. The joy is in the raising them and helping them grow anyway.

My little bro's fiancee has cysts on her ovaries and she miscarried when they got pregnant. So even if you save eggs you might not be able to carry to term without your ovaries simply because of hormonal issues. But on the same token... you may very well be able to. I think you should have it done now or you might regret it for the rest of your life. Surrogacy could also be an option.

Or you could adopt. I recommend adopting in a foreign country (such as Russia) as that would eliminate the possibility of certain complications down the road and also the waiting list could potentially be much shorter.

I know I'm new here and you don't know me, but I hope for the best for you in this situation. Maybe you'll be able to keep your ovary. And just because you don't ovulate doesn't mean you don't have viable ova. Stay optimistic.

If I have a girlfriend and/or wife, I'd be saddened to hear that from her. It would mean that we would never experience what it's like to see your own child and think that you created such a thing. To experience something that every single person should experience at least once in their life...
