Pelvic ultrasound reveals in the affected ovary a large corpus luteum cyst with signs of hemorrhage in it and/or free fluid (blood) in the abdominal cavity.

Classification # Painful type – the primary symptom is pain, without signs of intraperitoneal bleeding. # Anemic type – the primary symptom is internal (abdominal) bleeding, without pain. # Mixed type – a combination of pain and intraperitoneal bleeding. However, according to recent data, this classification is inadequate, because the ovary cannot rupture without bleeding. Therefore, a new pathology has been devised in which the condition is divided according to severity: mild, moderate and severe (depending on the magnitude of blood loss).
