Endometrial Scratch

Does anyone know if Endometrial scratch should be done before and FET? I had mine before the egg retrieval but ended up freezing the embryos and transfer them 6 months later. My clinic never suggested that another scratch would be needed prior to the transfer. No I’m reading online that a scratch will make the endometrium lining more receptive and increases the chance of implantation. Any thoughts?

Best ask your clinic to see if they think it would be helpful to have the scratch repeated as they know your history , results etc Good luck for the future

Take care

Hello hun, I was recommended to have the scratch after it was found I have high uterine natural killer cells, I had the scratch a month before my transfer (well actually I had the ERA test but that also acted as a scratch)
