Building up lining/advice to help stimming?

Hi all,

Rang my clinic today to book our slot for the time lapse monitoring and they said that they if everything goes okay, then we have a slot for the week that we should have our egg collection but if our lining isn’t built up enough then we will have to delay to the next week, when there isn’t any availability for the time lapse. So lots of reasons why we need to get this right!

Had a mc in November, which I’m wondering could have been down to the lining not being thick enough, so need some advice from you lovely lot as to how I can help this happen?

Drinking pomegranate juice, 2 litres of water a day and extra milk.

Thanks x

My lining didn’t get past 6.9 first round but was 8.5 second. The second round I drank pomegranate juice, had Brazil nuts most days, lots of greens and fruit, did exercise 3x a week, acupuncture, daily hot water bottle, limited caffeine, no alcohol and the Zita West Pre transfer cd! Who knows if any of it made a difference but I was on a mission! I was also given extra estrogen from the start that was prob the main reason. However I like to think my efforts helped lol!! Good luck x

Hi Rachel, I've also had lining issues. It was only 5.9 first cycle. As well as pomegranate juice and Brazil nuts, Vit e can help and baby aspirin which helps blood flow. I've been put on vagifem this cycle to help with thickness and was up to 7.1 by my last scan before collection. I've kept on it since then so hoping its continued to grow. Maybe ask your clinic about some vagifem if it's not thickening on its own. Good luck x

Apparently hot water bottle on abdomen whilst stimming could help.

Hiya, I drank 2 litres of water a day and 1 litre of full fat ( blue lid) milk and I’m convinced the milk was the key, had my scan on Friday measured 10.5, good luck xxxx

And no alcohol caffeine and limited carbs
