Endometrial lining

Lindsey

Hey all!

For those of you that had your transfers this month or any month in the past, where what was your endometrial lining thickness a week before transfer? And did you get a BFP or BFN?

My lining today was 7.4mm which is under where they like it to be (at least 8mm) but decided not to cancel my FET (scheduled for 4/18) because my endometrial “layers” look good and so do my labs. Is there anything I can do this close to transfer to improve my chances?? I would think if they didn’t cancel the cycle or change my protocol then they aren’t worried. But I want to be as proactive as I can to give my embaby the best chance!

Anything above 7 and they wont cancel. Pomegranate and beetroot helps...

I drank 8oz per day. But you could drink more if you want.

I have been drinking raspberry leaf tea in the am and pom juice with dinner and I was at a 6.9 on Thursday for 4/22 transfer. I usually hang out in the high 7's, low 8's, so to have 6.9 1.5 wks before transfer I feel like the pom and raspberry tea have helped! Interested to see where I'm at at my check on Tuesday

Beautiful Layers is more important than thickness. I am a victim of thin lining (2 cancelled FETs)- I’ve done all the wives tales and nothing so this time my clinic just shrugged their shoulders and said, let’s get to 6.5 with the trilaminar layers and give it a shot...some people just grow thinner linings 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve never had my uterus instrumented so it’s not asherman’s either.Last time I was in the low 6’s at my first lining check and did EVERYTHING- Acupuncture, cold laser therapy, Pom, raspberry leaf, supplements, beets, licorice, etc etc and when I went for my next check my lining was like 0.1-2 thicker but was no longer beautiful layers so I think while it’s nice to feel you are “contributing” somehow, I think in hindsight the stress I put on myself probably counteracted any of the effects I may have gotten. So try not to stress and remember your clinic wants positive results bc it makes them look better so they wouldn’t go ahead with it if it wasn’t an okay thickness!

That’s what I will be trying for...just waiting for my next period so hoping for a May transfer!

Thank you so much for your response! Did you already have your transfer with 6.5 or is that what you’re shooting for now?

Mine was 8.3 a week before but they told me anything over 7 is good and it will likely thicken on its own within the week. Good luck!!

Thanks! Yeah I read 7-8 can be ok but you know we all want to be over achievers and hear that we have the best lining ever lol
