Best Answer

a hemorrhagic follicle is sometimes called a chocolate cyst, and it occurs in the ovaries, I believe after ovulation. It is actually a bit of endometriosis inside of the ovary. I had this come up in an ultrasound and my Dr diagnosed me with endometriosis 1 year later, though not from the results from my ultrasound but from other signs and symptoms. My Surgeon removed the hemorrhagic follicle from my ovary when I went in for endometriosis surgery. I am not a Dr but a patient with endometriosis.
