Post-mumps infection, ovaries in girls can be affected due to the virus's ability to cause inflammation and damage to various organs, including the ovaries. This can lead to complications such as oophoritis, characterized by swelling and pain in the ovaries, which can impact fertility. The mumps virus can also lead to hormonal imbalances and, in some cases, premature ovarian failure. Vaccination against mumps significantly reduces the risk of such complications.

This inflammation can damage the testicular tissue, affecting sperm production. In contrast, women and children are generally less impacted by mumps in terms of reproductive health, as females have a different reproductive anatomy and the ovaries are not typically affected by the virus in the same way.
