Yes, a woman without a womb can still ovulate. The removal of the uterus, known as a hysterectomy, does not affect the ovaries' ability to produce eggs. However, since there's no uterus to receive the egg, natural pregnancy isn't possible. Women without a uterus who ovulate can explore options like surrogacy or IVF (in vitro fertilization) with a gestational carrier if they wish to have biological children.
