Solution

The correct option is A Inflammation of the ovaries

Oophoritis is the inflammation of the ovaries. This occurs often due to an infection which has ascended through the cervix, uterus, all through the fallopian tubes to reach the ovaries. Ovarian cysts are fluid containing sac or pouch like structures present within or on the surface of the ovary.
