I have poly-cystic ovaries. Because of this, I cannot conceive naturally. It also has other health complications. I am insulin resistant, which may one day turn into diabetes. I am prone to being overweight, and it's a constant struggle to keep my weight down.
I never wanted children, but when I found out that even the possibility was now greatly reduced, I felt a sort of panic. I had always assumed that if I ever changed my mind, I could just do it, and now I know that if I ever want to have a child, it will be costly, dangerous, and a struggle from start to end.
But there is so much support out there, and so many different possibilities. If you're worried about having children in the future, and not having working ovaries, I suggest you look into having eggs harvested now. That way you have a back up no matter what.
