Detailed Solution

Each ovary is connected by ligaments to pelvic wall and uterus.These ligaments help to hold the ovaries in place within the pelvis and provide stability to the reproductive organs.

There are several ligaments associated with the ovaries:

  • Ovarian Ligament: This ligament attaches the ovary to the uterus. It plays a crucial role in stabilizing the position of the ovary relative to the uterus.
  • Suspensory Ligament of the Ovary: This ligament connects the ovary to the pelvic wall. It contains blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves that supply the ovary. The suspensory ligament supports the ovary and facilitates its blood supply.
  • Mesovarium: The mesovarium is a fold of peritoneum (the membrane lining the abdominal cavity) that also attaches the ovary to the broad ligament of the uterus. It helps to anchor the ovary in place.
