endometrial thickness of under 7mm

Hi all, does anybody have any experience of doing a frozen embryo transfer with an endometrial thickness of under 7mm? Never had this issue before but the last round got cancelled due to this and this time they said they are willing to go ahead but not sure how I feel about it so would love to hear other people's experiences if possible. Thanks

I had a transfer when my linings was 7.1mm, even though on my first scan was 7.5mm. It shrank for some reason... unfortunately was another chemical pregnancy for me. After that my doctor decided to increase estrogen to 10mg/day (orally and vaginally) and on transfer day my lining was 10.2mm and now we have twins.

Wow congrats on the twins. Yeah I've cancelled the round as wasn't feeling good about going ahead with only 6.5. Would rather give every drug under the sun ago rather than waste a healthy embryo x

No my cycle was cancelled last month as my lining was below 5mm. I've never seen it that thin but then prev I've only done fresh transfers. This one is a frozen cycle. This month my consultant has put me on 2x2mg of progynova twice a day and on day 11 I got to 9.5mm with the tri. We are looking to transfer on day 20 (Wed next week) and now I'm worrying its going to be too thick by that point. Nothing just goes to plan, ever xx

I think once you start the progesterone it doesn't get any thicker and can even shrink a smidgen so I wouldn't worry 9.5 is amazing. I decided to cancel my round, I felt like I had failed before I even started so I'm going to go again and try even more oestrogen with female viagra which apparently helps you to absorb it. Feel really down about having to cancel again but I know what I'm like and would only regret it if I didn't. Good luck to you xxx
