day 12 of cycle lining only 5.6 mm ? Too thin can this change in 5 days?

8 Replies

update: Had my lining scan my gut instincts were right :( . My lining is only 5.6 mm too thin at the moment so transfer is not going ahead this Saturday.

I am skeptical i was on 3x 2mg progynova a day now i have to add 2mg more . I have a check up again on friday . To see if my lining has thickened after this . I am worried it wont make a difference and im just not responding or i wont respond.

Has anyone increased or taken oestrogen for 5 more days and their lining has thickened ? Today is day 10 on oestrogen . Im really gutted and deflated just feel like my body always lets me down😿😣

Hi Pcosivf. Yes, another five days can work wonders, so fingers crossed all will be well. Diane

I saw a similar post recently with similar circumstances to yours (sorry I can't remember which forum, it could have been this one but could have been a different one). The lining was not thick enough but did grow much thicker with a few extra days of estrogen (I think the estrogen was also increased like yours has been). Unfortunately all you can really do is follow the clinic's guidance and hope for the best. Definitely hope to be had though xx

In 5 days it will be much different, trust me..I’ve had this experience, it will grow. Try and keep active too. I spent some time doing Yoga which made a difference, it increased blood flow to that area, ther is some good videos online. Keep nice and warm too x

I had a cycle where 3 extra days with an increased dose did the trick and other cycles that didn't. it's one of those things that you can't predict.All the best!

Twice my lining was too thin at my lining check scan. I added 1x estrogen tablet vaginally and both times my lining was fine for transfer.

I drank pomegranate juice every day to help with the lining with my second FET. I think it did as lining was 3 cm better than with the first one. Good luck!

There is still hope - some studies reported that LBR for 4mm+ was comparable to women with thicker lining.
