Nothing. The ovaries are attached in two places...one to the uterus via the uteroovarian ligament and fallopian tubes and the other to the infindibulopelvic ligament to the side of the pelvis. Sometimes if these attachments are long or stretchy, the ovaries can be seen behind the uterus on ultrasound or during surgery. It's normal.

No. A tubal ligation severes the connection between the ovaries and the uterus. The ovaries float above the outside of the uterus and the fallopian tubes are the only opening into the top of the uterus. The cevix is the mouth of the uterus and is at the bottom of the uterus. The cervix is in the vagina and is not open to the area where the ovaries are.
