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.

If a girl have no ovaries and no womb from birth. does it mean that she is 100 percent INTERSEXED hermaphroditism does it mean that she is a 100 percent girl can any male sex with her and marry her?

It's not the ovaries and uterus that makes a woman a woman. It's her chromosomes. You don't write if she has something else instead so I assume she has female sexual organs which means she is a girl. For her to be a Hermaphrodite she also has to have male organs and you don't mention that. And she doesn't need a uterus or ovaries to have sex. Or to get married for that matter.
