What are the causes of ovarian inflammation?

Patient's question:

My wife has been experiencing sudden all-over fever, abdominal pain, and a sensation of fullness in her rectum recently. She felt completely exhausted and lacking in energy. She said the abdominal pain was like a jumping sensation. Later, she went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor diagnosed her with ovarian inflammation.

Doctor's answer:

The causes of ovarianitis are numerous. Overexertion, sexual activity, gynecological examinations, and other gynecological diseases or infections can all trigger ovarianitis. Other gynecological conditions can also lead to ovarianitis. The pathological types of chronic tubo-ovarian inflammation can generally be classified into four categories: tubal hydrops, tubal pyometra, adnexal inflammatory masses, and interstitial tubitis. Tubitis and ovarianitis are often accompanied by parametritis and pelvic peritonitis.
