How to thicken uterus lining fast before egg collection

[joey81]

Hi All,

I had my (day 11) final follicular scan today and going for egg collection in 2 days (wednesday) - ovitrelle tonight.

However my uterus lining is 7.5mm - i need it to go above 8mm to have the best chance. As its my third cycle (and probably the last), and i only have 3 mature follicles, i really want the best chance of succeeding.

Does anyone have any tips to help thicken the uterus lining ?

Many thanks in advance of any responses.

Hi, the main things you can try are raspberry leaf tea, pomegranate juice, vitamin E and also L'argine (sp??)... I have no idea whether or not it will help at this stage but it should continue to thicken naturally as your follicles grow, which they'll continue to do. Not sure that acupuncture would be advisable at this stage but if you've had it before you could ask your therapist. I'd definitely not do a caster oil pack at this stage. Good luck!

Thanks Libsie, i do take 200 vit E daily but ill send hubby for the pom juice. I didnt bother with Acupuncture this time, but did go for wet cupping just before i started my cycle (i got pregnant naturally last time i did this but unfortunately had a MC).

Use a hot water bottle against your tummy in the evenings but only before transfer. I also massaged castor oil on my tummy and that helped. Again only before transfer

I drank beetroot juice and raspberry leaf tea. Heat pad too, and definitely warm feet! Good luck xx
