Hello,
Thanks for sharing your health concern with us. Immature follicle means a follicle which has not developed completely enough to release the ovum; in other words, it cannot release the ovum. It may grow in course of time or wither away. In view of the abnormal bleeding and the finding of endometrial polyps in sonographic appearance, you may need an endometrial biopsy and histopathological examination of the polyps after removal. You can get it through hysteroscopy or dilatation and curettage. Further management should be planned accordingly. Hope this helps.
