how to thicken endometrium wall in ivf

[onewish709]

Im undergoing ivf & have been told on my day 20 that my endometrium wall is stagnant at 11.7 mm for last 4 days. Hence, Frozen embryo transfer cant take place as my wall has not thickened. Can u please suggest how to thicken the wall as this the 2nd time that transfer had to be cancelled as the wall has not thickened. Also why is it that the wall is not thickening?

thanks for your help & comments- my doc said that the wall needs to grow continuosly during iVF cycle- which had stagnated for 4 days in my case.

I am not sure what your RE is wanting.  Almost all RE's want your lining to be at 8mm or over.  Do they have you on estrace?  That helps to thicken the wall... but again, I am not sure what your doctor is wanting???

Hi, with the ivf cycle you should be on hormones that thicken your lining, what is you dr wanting it to get to? my gyne said anything over 6.0 mm is ok so yours is pretty good, my first ivf cycle my lining was 6.5 and it worked.

Good Luck
