Hello
Your ultrasound findings suggests mildly bulky uterus.
Endometrial thickness is also increased.
There is a small hypo echoic lesion within endometrial cavity.It may be a small endometrial fibroid or polyp.
This condition need clinical correlation and further investigations.You may need hysteroscopy.
Generally this is a benign finding.Definitive treatment depend upon findings. Polypectomy can be done if it is confirmed a polyp otherwise it may need regular follow up only.
Get well soon.
Take Care

1. The uterus is measuring 102 x 56 x 50 mm and is normal in size.
2. The endometrial stripe is 14 mm and there is a dark area measuring 16 x 16 x 14 mm withing the endometrial canal.
3. It appears that there might be a polyp or fibroid in the endometrial canal.
4. Such polyps might cause increased duration and flow during menstrual periods.
5. Please discuss with your doctor and you might require a hysteroscopy and polyp removal.
