Question

I'm a bit concerned because I recently had a treatment with FSH injections to help with conceiving. They told me only one egg developed in my right ovary, and none were growing in my left ovary.

Is this something I should be worried about for the future, or is there a way to stimulate the left ovary to produce eggs too?
