First stimming scan

Hey everyone

Had my first stimming scan today and they said my lining was only 4.5 so very thin. How thick should it be ? Should I be worried?

I had a total of 7 follicles but all very small so they are increasing my dose of meronial and scanning again in 3 day’s

I’m surprised I’m not stimming better, has anyone else had a positive outcome with a thin lining /small follicles at this stage?

Thanks x

Hi penny 24. You’re looking for 8mm. Hope fully the increased dose will sort you out. Good luck! Diane

You’ve got a few more days to go yet and the clinic has upped your dose so try not to worry. They start you out slow to see what happens and then increase it rather than start with a massive dose straight off.

Thanks, I’m now on 450 merional, was on 300. Last round I was on 225 but resulted in bfn so was hoping for a better result. I think need to be more patient xx

Try not to panic to much yet as you’ve got time for the follicles to catch up, mine were quite small on my first stimming scan but it’s good they’ve upped your dose. Keep positive xx

My dose had also been increased after first scan, everyone reacts differently and nurse seemed to think it is normal.

I believe my lining was looking ok but follicles need to grow
