What can a doctor do about very thin endometrium lining?

Question

I ovulate tomorrow and my lining is only .5 and they may cancel my IUI. What can they do tp thicken it. I am on Femara already which is supposed to thicken it.

Answer 1

Are you seeing a fertility specialist?  There are many options available to you. My coworker had the same problem and she finally ended on bed rest until the invitro finally  planted itself.

Answer 2

The lining continues to thicken after ovulation.

You can try 1200IUs of Vitamin E throughout your cycle, Don Quai, baby aspirin, progesterone supplementation vaginally.  All these help with increasing the lining.

Answer 3

I had Clomid and an HCG injection last month. The HCG injection definitely helped with thickening the lining. This is because it is Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (The hormone found in pregnant women's urine)

It has a lot of progesterine in it, which is the hormone that helps support and sustain a pregnancy. It is one of the main reasons that the lining gets built up thicker, and stays that way during pregnancy. TMI....my period was a lot heavier after the round of meds last month.

HCG injections are also called trigger shots, because they trigger the follicles to release the eggs 36 hours after the shot. This will pretty much ensure you ovulate!

The best of luck to you! I am assuming with doing the IUI that you are already seeing a reproductive endocronologist. Ask them what else they can do, and or if the HCG injectables might be right for you!

Best of luck to you! TTC 15 months myself! BABY DUST BABY DUST BABY DUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!********************...
