Anyone with a thin uterine lining?

Hello ladies! I had an ultrasound done this afternoon that shows that I have very low uterine lining, which is probably part of the reason that I'm not getting pregnant (technician said this interferes with possible implantation). I remembered that I had low uterine lining when I was pregnant with DD2, which makes me worry that I wouldn't be able to carry to full term and would miscarry if I got pregnant now. Can anything be done for this? Has anyone had experience with this??

Have they tested your estrogen levels? The first thing that comes to mind is estrogen to help with increasing the thickness.

I'm sure more experienced people will chime in!

FX so hard that this can be resolved soon so you can get your BFP!

Maxim, thin uterine lining is typically a result of low estrogen. Your doctor can give you an estrogen patch, injections, or pills. You can also try taking 600mg vitamin E. Walking is also supposed to help increase the blood flow to your uterus which also helps increase lining thickness. You should definitely talk to your doctor about it. Also, Clomid would not be an option for you as it reduces lining thickness. Femara does not decrease uterine lining though, so you could try that. Your doctor can test you for low estrogen with a blood test. If your estrogen is low, it would explain your long cycles.

I didn't have a thin lining per say but i did have a 9mm thick lining the first apt I had with my fertility clinic. The cycle I got pregnant I went up to a 14mm thick lining thanks to progesterone suppositories. Id definitely suggest looking into that!?

Ask Cosmo bc I think she was the one who told me it helps with the thickness?!

Please don't take the Vitamin E, I don't recommend that. No one needs more than the amount in a prenatal, and if you think you need that, just start up taking one 3 days a week.

I do want some clarification here. What CD did they test you?

Thanks so much for the quick responses!! ❤️ They did blood work 2 weeks ago to check my thyroid - he thought that my cycles might be long due to thyroid issues. Everything came back normal, but I'm not sure specifically if he checked estrogen - would that be on the same panel?

Atomic, I'm CD28 today and my u/s was this afternoon. She said that I ovulated because there was corpus luteum, which is crazy to me since my temps aren't very high and I never got a positive on my OPK (and I'm obsessively testing 3x/day!!). She couldn't tell specifically when I O'd, but it would be sometime between CD25-27.

ok just wanted to be sure where you were in the cycle

Thanks, atomic! I appreciate everyone's feedback - will loop back tomorrow after OB calls me.
