Successful FET on a thin lining?

[Murielsmom]

Hi, just looking for any success stories of a successful FET on a lining on the thinner side. I’m currently prepping for a FET after 2 cancelled transfer cycles due to a thin lining. I need all the hope and successful stories I can get. I don’t think I can deal with another cancelled cycle 😫.

Good morning. My lining was slightly lower than where the clinic wanted it to be but as it was triple lined and looked ok they allowed me to transfer my 3bc frozen embryo. It was 7.8mm and they said they wanted it over 8mm. All worked out for us though as we now have a little boy from that cycle. I guess it just depends on how thin your lining is? Wishing you every success with your next transfer xx

Thank you.

Morning, I’ve always struggled with my lining and had 3 FETs cancelled as a result so can understand how you feel. In the end they realised I was resistant to artificial estrogen so my lining never thickened despite the high levels of medication they threw at it... On all the cycles my lining started to break down before it got above 6mm. In the end I did a natural cycle and they wanted my lining between 7&8mm, it got to 7.4mm so they triggered ovulation. I’m 17 weeks pregnant now. If you’ve got a regular cycle and you’ve not tried it it’s worth a go. Some clinics aren’t fans as it’s harder to predict when transfer will be. I really doubted it would work if my body wouldn’t respond to medication but it was fine. I’m sure you’ve tried all the things you can do to help but if not let me know. Wishing you lots of luck xxx

I have a regular cycle but I never get above 6.8 (that’s my all time high) in any cycle. I will try a natural cycle if this cycle isn’t successful. Thank you for your reply!

What thickness do you get to? I don’t respond to artificial estrogen- I got my lining to an all time 8-9mm with menopur stimulation- ended in chemical pregnancy but in July I got to 6.8mm with fresh and I got prengnant but miscarried at 7weeks but that’s for another reason - I was told ima. Thin liner ans that’s just me! So my consultant is happy to transfer with me anything above 6mm....

I took vitamin E 1000 IU avacado ans pomegranate juice too... who knows if it worked. Xx but with ur Fet maybe try menopur stimulation?

[Murielsmom in reply to Hopeful2021]

I’m so sorry to hear about your losses. I’ve also had 2 miscarriages so I understand. I’ve only ever got to 6.8mm at most. I would think about Menopur stimulation but the cost - argh! I’m so broke from this IVF process as is! Best of luck to you in 2021!

Hey there. My Dr mentioned to me that quality is more important than thickness and he has had success just below 6mm if it’s trilaminar. I hope that helps somehow xx

[Murielsmom in reply to Maui2020]

Thanks. It’s always triliminar, just never above 7.

Hello,I just wanted to say that I also have a very thin lining and was cancelled 4/5times due to not getting to 6mm. I have eventually been able to get to 7mm (7.8 was the record!) and just had a BFP from my third FET.

Im not out the woods yet, I feel extremely nervous but I wanted to give you some hope that an embryo can make it on a thin lining!

Good luck and message me if I can help in anyway xxx

[Murielsmom in reply to Pebbles345]

Thank you so much. The clinic doesn’t think I will get past 6.5 so considering this is my third attempt to get to 7, I’m going to go for a transfer anyway and hope that I’m one of those lucky people. Best of luck to you.

What did you do for this cycle

[Cinderella5]

Have you tried drinking raspberry leaf tea (leaf not flavoured) and taking raspberry leaf tablets? I took these alongside vit E and my FET meds and got my best ever lining and we got a BFP with twins. Good luck.xx

[Murielsmom in reply to Cinderella5]

I have not tried it but we are going ahead with a transfer on a 6.5mm lining. Fingers crossed! Congrats on your twins!

[Cinderella5 in reply to Murielsmom]

Wishing you tonnes of luck!xx

[Pebbles345 in reply to Murielsmom]

Good luck!! I really hope its good news for you xx

***UPDATE**** after 10 days of taking progynova, patches and clexane shots, I was only at 6.3 😫. As this was my third attempt and my endometrium was triliminar, we decided to go ahead with the transfer.

I transferred 2 thawed embryos today and I’m so shocked. My lining increased from 6.3to 8.1!!! After 3 years of disappointments, miscarriages and breaking up with my partner (we are going to co parent) I was really happy about this.

Now the 2ww wait begins!

[HemBella in reply to Murielsmom]

That’s amazing! I’ve struggled with thin lining too and had such variations with measurements. That’s a great increase. Keeping everything crossed for your BFP xx

[Murielsmom in reply to HemBella]

Thank you. I know how frustrating this lining issue can be. After my second cancelled cycle, I sat on the pavement outside my clinic and cried my eyes out. I think people thought I was mad. I wish you all the best!!!

So glad to hear everything went well,baby dust 😘😘😘😘

[Hopefulfor2021]

Baby dust for you!! I am prepping for a FET. I have a 5AA female and a 5BB male both PGS tested. I’m so nervous because of my age.

[Murielsmom in reply to Hopefulfor2021]

You have such a good chance! I‘m staying positive for you!!! Good luck!!

[Hopefulfor2021]

Thank you so much 😊

I am currently 11 weeks and transferred with 6.5 mm lining. Best of luck to you! ❤️

[Murielsmom in reply to Msze]

Thank you for responding! That’s amazing/inspiring to read. Good luck with the pregnancy and congratulations!!

[qido in reply to Msze]

hi msze & murielsmom sorry if i jumping on your post.

msze can i ask what make your clinic decided give a go transfer with 6.5 mm? and is that singletons or twins?

coz today i just get scanned after took more aweek the results from 5 to 6.5mm. and i’m abit nervous waiting to ring clinic this afternoon.

thank you xx

[Msze in reply to qido]

My lining was trilateral and my doctor said that was the most important thing - more so than the mm.

[Msze in reply to Msze]

It’s a single embryo.

[qido in reply to Msze]

okay, thank you xx

[Murielsmom in reply to qido]

Same, the clinic said the quality of the lining is more important than the thickness, so I was cleared to transfer on what was 6.3 at the time. I had a double embryo transfer. Also don’t underestimate those extra 5 days when you start progesterone. It may increase the thickness a bit too.

[qido in reply to Murielsmom]

thank you... will do.. my transfer date is approximately tuesday next weeks.. i have some of cyst outside of wombs therefore the nurse struggled to see he triliminar...
