Help!!! Endometrium too thick for DE transfer?!?

I went for my 10day ultrasound yesterday (Wednesday), to check the endometrium...which turned out to be 15mm!😱 I'll start Progesteron tomorrow night (Friday), donor egg collection is on Saturday and transfer is supposed to be next Thursday (5 day-blasto). The lining is "perfect", regular and tri-liminar... I'm a bit panicked as 15mm seems A LOT. Any experiences with this? I am seeking treatment abroad, so, not easy to get a direct/reliable opinion from the clinic...

Thank you!!!

Hi, I don't think it's a huge problem. Some women tend to have thicker linings than others. My doctors have never said there is a problem with mine, and it has been 15 to 19mm. I think most studies conclude that too thin is bad, but nothing conclusive about what exactly is "too thick". Best of luck to you! xxxx

Im sure this will be ok! Your clinic would honestly say if it was a problem as they want you to succeed for you and their success rates! Ive read a few medical studies and thicker linings seem to be a good thing with better rates of success.....my lining has always been a pest and on the thinner side so read heaps! lol Good luck, hope transfer goes smoothly!xx

If you clinic aren’t concerned I wouldn’t be I know a lot of clinics like to see it between 7-10mm but I’m sure it being 15 would be better than it being 5 and not thick enough
