Lining too thick on buserelin

Currently taking buserelin for 3 weeks and had my baseline scan. I was told my uterine lining had not all shed yet and it was too thick - but I’ve stopped bleeding? I’ve been told to come back a week later as the uterine lining may absorb itself - has anyone had this before? Help would be much appreciated!

Yes I had this and I’m sorry to say my cycle eventually got cancelled, I was left on the buserelin and spotted a further 2 times but my lining never got thinner than 7.2mm. I stopped and restarted the following month and it was fine this time, I did have acupuncture to help ensure it didn’t happen again. Nobody knows why it happened but I’m told it doesn’t happen often. Good luck! Xx

Hi DiiDii,

This happened to me on when I was sniffing suprecur. My lining was too thick... apparently my body didn't absorb the drug well enough. I had to wait for about 2 cycles before they started me on the Suprecur injections and thats worked well. I hope everything works out & this is just a small bump on your journey xxx

This happened to me but they doubled my dose of buserelin for a week (not fun) and the lining had reabsorbed by the scan the next week. Good luck!

Thanks ladies! I guess I should consider this cycle being cancelled if my lining doesn’t absorb itself! It’s so hard being so close to transfer - they even gave me a transfer date! My dose of buserelin hasn’t been increased, I’m just on it for an extra week... we will see what Mondays scan reveals - just have to trust your body and trust in the process. Thanks for all your helpful advice x
