Avatar f tn What is a good way to thicken the uterine lining. My lining my last two cycles have been 7mm then 5mm. I was on clomid both times, and my RE has switched me to Letrozole. I'm going on vacation this month so won't start a cycle till October. I heard baby aspirin will help, but not sure if this is safe.
Avatar f tn I also had/have a thin lining. I was on clomid 50mg 2 x a day. My lining was only a 6 on day 12. i was put on estrogen pills. dr still did IUI 2 days later on day 14. When i went in a few days later for a U/S to see where i was at with my lining, It had only grown to a 7. Dr said he thought that was fine. I read that it should really be between an 8 and 12 for implantation.
Avatar n tn I would think an estrogen supplement would help build the lining. I've also heard that Red Raspberry Leaf Tea and vitamin B6 helps, but make sure you discuss these with your doctor before you start using them. Sometimes natural supplements can interfere with fertility medication. Best of luck to you!
1055902 tn?1286305198 from what ive read so far it seems high estrogen can make the uterine lining thick. which if interesting seen i just went to the NP thinking mine was high because my BBs are constantly sore and high estrogen will case that problem. she said even if my estrogen is high the only thing that will fix it is going on BC... not what i want to hear when TTC right!!!!! but in your case.. im not sure about the fertility meds you are taking but I do know that clomid can make the lining thin...
Avatar f tn My RE says my uterine lining is very thin; it went from 7mm to 5mm on clomid (have sense switched to Femera). Has anyone had problems with thin lining and if so, how did you thicken it.
Avatar f tn I had a friend who was on clomid and estrogen (clomid helped her get pregnant, but thinned her lining, so the estrogen helped counter that), then she went on progesterone as soon as she got a bfp. and found this on healthywomen . org "During the reproductive years, the pituitary gland in the brain generates hormones that cause a new egg to be released from its follicle each month. As the follicle develops, it produces estrogen, which causes the lining of the uterus to thicken.
Avatar f tn C due to irregular staining for a duration of a few months after my pelvic ultrasound showed an abnormally thick uterine lining. All was well for a few months, I then had 3 months of no period (hooray) but then I had about 2 weeks of staining. After a month I had 3 days of extremely heavy bleeding (something I had a few years ago on a monthly basis - but I thought I was done with that). I went for another ultrasound which again is showing a thick uterine lining. My dr.
449498 tn?1338772039 I too am not sure what the rate of growth is but i do know that the uterine lining is created by estrogen . The more estrogen we have the thicker the lining will be. Mine was 9mm 2 days before trigger and 11mm on the day of trigger.
Avatar f tn I imagine he/she would prescribe progesterone supplements, which would thicken your uterine lining. If your lining is too thin, an embryo can't attach. Progesterone suppositories seem to be a good first step. Has your ob mentioned them? If not, maybe you could ask him/her about trying them. My ob originally prescribed them for me, but I'm continuing with them through my RE. Before taking prog., my luteal phase (from Ovulation- period) was only around 9 days.
Avatar m tn I went to my gyn doctor, because I told her i did not have a period in four months she gave me an appt to have transvaginal sonogram. it showed thick uterine lining of 10 mm therefore she said that i needed an endometrial biopsy which i had. my results came back benign, thank God. I asked her if I needed to take any hormone therapy like progesterone, she said no she does not like putting her patients on hormones due to the side effects only if absolutely necessary.
Avatar f tn today went in for cd12 exam to chec follies and determine if there ready for trigger shot and iui.. they said good news is u have 3 follies on right 18, 16 and 16 all fused together though.. and 2 on the left 20 and 16. bad news is my uterine lining didnt grow any it's still only a 3.. has any one had this problem or no one anyone who has achieved and carried a p[regnancy to term with this thin uterine lining.
1068361 tn?1290628159 hi all i was wondering if anyone here has had success using clomid over the age of 38. ive heard that clomid doesnt work for older women because it thins the uterine lining thus preventing implantation.
Avatar m tn Thickening of the uterine lining can mean several things and most of them are not serious. I have a thickened uterine lining as well. What it will mean is that they will likely do an endometrial biopsy (office procedure) or, a D&C (hospital procedure, day surgery..about a 15 minute procedure under general anesthetic) to check the cells to see a number of things: They can determine if the build-up of the endometrium is due to proliferative changes (ie: hormonal imbalances...
162784 tn?1227296050 I had an office hysteroscopy on CD7, and results said I wasn't ovulating even though my BBT is biphasic & OPKs are positive. My GYN said the biopsy indicated that my uterine lining shows that it is not responding to Progesterone so I'm not Ovulating and I had too much Estrogen. I researched on my own and found that the biopsy should be done BEFORE AF in the luteal phase and not in the beginning of the cycle like I had.
Avatar n tn The chronic stimulation of the uterine lining (due to estrogen without the benefit of progesterone) causes it to thicken. Ultimately this usually results in abnormal bleeding. Most of the time there is too much bleeding after awhile of having minimal or none. If the lining continues to thicken over a period of years it can become hyperplastic or pre-cancerous. If it continues even longer, it can become cancerous.

Avatar f tn Another thing you can try is Raspberry LEAF tea. It helps to tone the uterine lining. But, only take it till ovulation. You can find this in either the organic section of the grocery store, or at health food stores.
Avatar f tn Your uterine lining is denuded. You need estrogen to thicken your lining. Unfortunately your only option for birth control after starting small doses of estrogen will probably be a copper IUD.
Avatar m tn If your wife is pregnant, it might be a self-correcting problem, as the estrogen produced by the pregnancy should thicken the lining. There are various foods said to help the lining, and also acupuncture is said to be able to increase the blood flow to the uterus (but find an acupuncturist who specializes in fertility issues if you go that route). The foods are: turkey, eggs, whole milk, walnuts, Brazil nuts, pineapple core. No caffeine.
Avatar f tn he said for example sometimes they implant in tubes or outside the uterus and theres not an ideally thick uterine lining there. so he said this is the best hes been able to get me to respond.
Avatar f tn Have been trying to complete FET but have cancelled twice due to uetrine lining being only 5.4 mm. Now trying a third time and uterine lining is only 4.2 mm. I am on the max dosage of estrogen, drinking red raspberry leaf tea, takin vitex and a baby aspirin every day, vitamin B complex, vitamin C and of course my prenatal vitamins. Started acupuncture last week and going for more treatments this week. Any advice, suggestions etc.. are welcome.
1320252 tn?1290190343 I was also given Estrogen to thicken my uterine lining. And its a bonus because it also helps with dryness "down there" too. Good luck and I hope it works for you!
189192 tn?1261341628 t understand why he is so focused on my lining. He keeps giving me estrogen to thicken the lining but it is slowing and halting my follicle development. Last cycle it drug my ovulation out to like cd19.This cycle it is cd16 and I have no (zero) follicle development yet. Prior to all this estrogen treatment I ovulated on cd12 to 14, ALWAYS on my own without any meds!!
1358758 tn?1390767067 Anyone know of anything that improves uterine lining thickness? Our doc gave us no suggestions. Was on clomid, which may be impacting it, but wondering if there are certain vitamins, foods to avoid, etc. that I could try.
