Baseline diameter (cm)	0.281 ± 0.032	0.306 ± 0.027	0.091	0.285 ± 0.029	0.307 ± 0.027	0.122
Peak diameter (cm)	0.316 ± 0.035	0.334 ± 0.032	0.269	0.315 ± 0.032	0.325 ± 0.028	0.471
Shear (s^− 1 AUC)	51,487 ± 20,264	52,242 ± 22,526	0.941	59,852 ± 18,080	45,892 ± 18,158	0.122

Values are mean ± SD. AUC = Area under the curve, FMD = Flow-mediated dilation. Bold values indicate between group significance at each menstrual cycle phase
