during the early ______phase many follicles develop and increase in size until about day 8-9 of the menstrual cycle

benign
duplex doppler reveals prominent ________flow in corpus luteum cysts this low velocity waveform is present throughout the luteal phase of the cycle
`diastolic
echogenic free intraperitoneal fluid in the cul-de-sac can help confirm the diagnoses of a __________of leaking hemorrhagic cyst
