Sorry for replying late

Report mention hyperechoic lesion not hypoechoic.It is rightly mentioned that it may be a polyp.
Polyp is a benign finding and its treatment depend upon clinical findings and symptoms.
It is not due to past abortion.

I expect that you will only need conservative treatment and follow up.
Small polyps without symptoms might resolve on their own.

In short,it is not a serious finding.It is a benign condition.

Get well soon.

I don't think you need repeat ultrasound for this.

You may need clinical evaluation and most likely you will need conservative treatment.
Later on,ultrasound may be advised for polyp.
