Otitis media with effusion is primarily caused by dysfunction of the eustachian tubes, the pathways that connect your throat to the middle ear regions. The tubes also stabilize the pressure between your middle ear and the air.
Otitis media is a generic term that refers to an inflammation of the middle ear. The middle ear is the space behind the eardrum. Otitis media with effusion means there is fluid (effusion) in the middle ear, without an infection. Fluid in the middle ear can have few symptoms, especially if it develops slowly.
Otitis media with effusion (OME) is a collection of non-infected fluid in the middle ear space. It is also called serous or secretory otitis media (SOM). This fluid may accumulate in the middle ear as a result of a cold, sore throat or upper respiratory infection.
Otitis media with effusion or a middle ear effusion (MEE) most often represents the accumulation of transudate in response to negative pressure and/or inflammation within the middle ear space. Mastoid effusions (ME) occur in conjunction with MEE, because the 2 spaces are continuous with one another.

Allergies, air irritants, and respiratory infections can all cause OME. Changes in air pressure can close the eustachian tube and affect fluid flow. These causes might be due to flying in an airplane or by drinking while lying down.
