Let $X,\,Y$ be reduced and irreducible compact complex spaces and $S$ the set of all isomorphism classes of reduced and irreducible compact complex spaces $W$ such that $X\,\times \,Y\,\cong \,X\,\times \,W$. Here we prove that $S$ is at most countable. We apply this result to show that for every reduced and irreducible compact complex space $X$ the set $S(X)$ of all complex reduced compact complex spaces $W$ with $X\,\times \,{{X}^{\sigma }}\,\cong \,W\,\times \,{{W}^{\sigma }}$ (where ${{A}^{\sigma }}$ denotes the complex conjugate of any variety $A$) is at most countable.
