Thin Lining Day 10

[Lemons1986]

Hi Everyone

So third cycle could be cancelled due to thin lining again. I had a natural cycle last time with added vagifem days 9-11 and my lining got to 6.9 mm. This time I have been on a medicated cycle . 75iu menopur, letrozole for 5 days and baby aspirin, vitamin E all the beetroot juice, raspberry tea etc.

And on day 10 my lining is only 6mm it needs to be 7 I have a short cycle so I could ovulate and my follicles are 18mm. Clinic has given me fyremadel and asked me to come back in day 12 . I have been given vagifem for the last 2 days as it was only 4mm two days ago . I have had saline scan and nothing is wrong with my uterus and I had the dye test with xray and ultra sound to check for scarring at the beginning of my journey. My fresh cycle was 8.5mm Lining so I have no idea why my body is worse off medicated then unmedicated and the clinic cannot tell me it is not getting thick.

I am convinced I will ovulate and this will be another cycle but why am i worse off medicated? I only have one frozen embryo and I am scared that all this intervention I am just setting myself up to fail.

Anyone else had any success and have been in the same situation?

I am always worse off medicated. Have you tried a modified natural cycle? Where you go with your natural cycle with just a trigger injection to time ovulation at the end. My lining is always better this way.

Hi yes I had a natural one last time and it didn’t get past 6.9 and this was after using vagifem for 1.5 days to try and push it up so this is why they’ve recommended the medicated and it’s worse . I hope I don’t ovulate by tomorrow as I have a short cycle . Praying for a miracle .

hi there! I always struggled with a thin lining (light periods all my life) and it reached the point where my clinic and I agreed that we should go ahead with a lining of 6.8mm.. (after a number of cancelled transfers) It was my 3rd transfer and I was Devo that everything wasn’t exactly right.. well what do you know.. that 3rd transfer worked and I’m currently 32 weeks pregnant. They also kept pushing for 7mm.. best of luck with it xxxx

Thank you this gives me a bit of hope!

I’ve had one natural cycle cancelled and my fresh ivf failed . Tested all my eggs and only one was ok . I’ve never been pregnant I’m just hoping they can delay the ovulation and make that cushion a little better . Congratulations on your baby dust xx

Can you speak to them about PRP? I had that for one of my cycles and although it didn't make much difference for that one - a month later my lining was 10.3 at day 10!

Thank you I will be talking to them about this if it is cancelled tomorrow. Did you have a successful transfer?

[Emzy12580 in reply to Lemons1986]

Yes I am currently 15.5 weeks from that transfer 😁

Hi lovely, I'm so sorry it's so hard. Could your clinic give you oestrogen tablets to help? All my FETs have been medicated and I have had to take 8mg of oestrogen tablets per day. X

Hi It is such a hard journey. I have vagifem hoping they kick in xx

[Citizenerased83 in reply to Lemons1986]

Fingers crossed it kicks in and does the trick. Sending you lots of baby dust xx
